Work life boundaries, not work life balance - With Claudia Stephenson
Send us Fan Mail
This week on The Events Insight, we’re tackling a topic that resonates across our industry, work life boundaries, not work life balance.
Jack and Karen are joined by Claudia, a brand storyteller with 25 years of experience delivering award-winning work for global names including Hitachi, Amazon, PwC, PepsiCo and Audi, across sectors spanning Technology, Professional Services, FMCG, Healthcare and Automotive.
As Managing Director of INVNT EMEA, Claudia has built and led high-performing teams responsible for bold, results-driven campaigns that have fuelled the agency’s rapid growth since 2020. She understands what it takes to operate at the highest level and what it costs if boundaries aren’t clearly defined.
In this episode, we explore the difference between chasing “balance” and setting meaningful boundaries. What does leadership look like when performance and personal life collide? How do you build ambitious teams without burning them out? And how do you protect your energy in an always-on industry?
Beyond agency life, Claudia is deeply committed to mentoring the next generation. She serves as a Board Member at Brixton Finishing School and mentors through Elevate, helping to shape future talent across the industry.
A first-generation American who grew up across Germany, England and the US, Claudia has called London home since 2011 navigating agency leadership alongside family life with her two sports-obsessed boys and her chef-skilled husband.
This is a conversation about ambition, boundaries and building a career that works for you ... not against you.
