"It's only in looking back that things finally make sense."-Camilla Bath
Join us for this brand-new episode of the Ripple Effect podcast, in which Camilla Bath explores her ripple effect moments: what were decisions, encounters, insights or situations that did not feel like much the moment they happened, but which - on hindsight - set in motion a chain of events that led her to where she is right now?
Her personal ripple effect moments lead us to discuss the importance of human connection and the impact of AI in journalism and newsrooms. We also reflect on how mistakes can become your biggest opportunity for growth as long as you approach it with humility.
In this episode, you'll discover:
- The unexpected turning point that set Camilla on her 20-year career path as news anchor
- How she navigated the challenge of leading colleagues that were older and more experienced than herself
- Why curiosity, creativity, and human connection are vital in the age of AI
- Why good innovation is never "AI for AI's sake"
- What a prestigious Fellowship taught her about the power of connection and fun
- The biggest mistake that became her biggest growth opportunity
- Her framework for making hard decisions with courage
At a time when technological leaps and global upheaval threaten to disconnect us, Camilla's stories are a hopeful reminder that our most human traits — curiosity, creativity, empathy — are the ones that will guide us forward.
A must-listen for journalists, leaders, innovators, and anyone who senses that life isn't a random string of events, but a series of small, unexpected moments that quietly define our path.
Camilla Bath is an award-winning journalist, program director for the World Press Institute Fellowship, and an innovation coach for newsrooms.
