In this episode, Mimi Brooks speaks with Faisal Hoque, innovation and transformation partner, entrepreneur, and founder of SHADOKA and NextChapter. Drawing on Faisal’s unique fusion of Eastern philosophy and American entrepreneurial spirit, Mimi and Faisal explore what it means to transcend as a leader, how to build organizations that thrive through cycles of change, and why the inner life of leadership is more important than ever.
