What Global Events Can Teach Us About Leading Change

Join CCL's Ren Washington and Allison Barr as they explore the withdrawal of US forces from Afghanistan, and the collapse of decades of work and a trillion dollars.

In a matter of days in August, the Taliban captured most of the country just weeks before the US was set to withdraw its last troops. We’re lucky enough to talk about leadership and its implications on international trade, or the stock market, or solar energy. And we have the responsibility to talk about leadership and its implications on society and the world. 

Today we want to look at leadership’s role in forging a better future. What kind of leadership does it take to make this situation any better? Is that even possible? And what are the lessons we can take to be better every day? 

In this episode, we discuss how it’s crucial to change mindsets and establish commitment in order to create real and sustainable change, rather than just putting structures in place to force behavior. We also dive into the importance of supporting women in the workplace, and how only true allyship can drive progress towards equity for historically marginalized groups.
