How do you balance future planning while maintaining flexibility to adapt to changes? 

In episode #178, Leah Tharin shares her insights from working in tech and start-ups for over 20 years. She covers how to lead your team through constant change, aligning your team with team goals, and why you should allow people to try a job before they commit to it.
You'll learn her framework for "reality checks," which she calls periodic evaluations that prevent you and your employees from getting off course. She also reveals how to avoid burnout and costly mistakes in the hiring process, planning for resilience, and mitigating risks.
