In this inspiring conversation, Shannon sits down with Juliane Stephan, a lifelong Catalyst and Operating Partner at BayPine, to explore how Catalysts can find and craft roles that truly give them license to transform organizations. Juliane shares two key strategies she’s used throughout her career: identifying ambiguity when seeking new roles externally, and making a strong business case for transformation opportunities internally.They also dive into the common challenges Catalyst executives face—like moving too fast, needing to repeatedly align others to their vision (she loves memos over powerpoints to force clarity), and operating in resource-constrained environments. Juliane offers practical insights on building trust, developing strategic networks, and creating coalitions to drive meaningful change. Finally, Juliane had some really great ideas about how to navigate the constant challenge of "doing more with less." You'll have to listen to find out more!
