The importance of emotions to collaboration, communication, and creativity, how to overcome the fear of failure, graciously accept feedback, and more.

Today’s Bright & Wize guest is Dr. Saundra Schrock. Dr. Schrock brings a unique and far-reaching perspective to the topics of career growth, development, and success. For almost 35-years, Saundra was in the financial services industry, beginning her career as a bank teller and rising through the ranks to her role as Executive Vice President at J.P. Morgan Chase. Saundra shares how it was this last role that led her to develop a deep practice in mindfulness. The life-changing impact of her practice then led to Saundra founding a successful mindfulness development company and completing her Ph.D. in Industrial and Organizational Psychology.

Our conversation covers topics ranging from:

  • The critical skills required in our new world of work, which are Collaboration, Communication, and Creation.
  •  How fear of failure is a misguided belief that we can all overcome by quieting our inner critic. And Dr. Schrock shares an excellent exercise to silence that deflating voice.
  • To an exercise that aids in graciously accepting feedback, even if unkind, to overcome missteps and grow and develop in our careers.
  • How Saundra survived a severe bout of COVID-19, which led her to write a book during the pandemic, Thriving in a Global Pandemic and Beyond: More Than 100 Real-Life Lessons, which you can purchase at: https://store.bookbaby.com/book/Thriving-in-a-Global-Pandemic-and-Beyond
