Holly Ransom - Inspiring path from Perth to interviewing & engaging with powerhouse leaders including Obama, Richard Branson, Dalai Lama & more!
Holly's favourite quote is “Never doubt that a group of thoughtful and committed citizens can change the world, its the only thing that ever has” - Margaret Meed
Take flight into Holly's journey - growing up in Perth, Australia and then around the world, her routines, learnings, perspectives and insights on a number of specifics and much much more. I must admit this is the first time in 44 episodes where I was quite nervous!
Some of the insights I hope you are able to take away from this conversation include how to make the jump from a corporate job to starting own business and the importance of the first 3 months, how Holly prepares prior to interviewing the likes of Obama and Richard Branson, why nervous are selfish, hours of practise and refining her craft that’s helped Holly become an eloquent speaker and thought leader today, the beliefs of leadership and how they have evolved for Holly which culminated in Holly writing her new book, The Leading Edge - dream big, spark change and become the leader the world needs you to be.
