  • Words Are All We Have: Steve Vamos on Navigating Change Through Shifts and Shocks
    2024/12/14

    In this episode, Jess sits down with Steve Vamos, a global leader with over 40 years of experience navigating some of the world’s largest organisations through periods of immense change and disruption. From the 1980s recession to the COVID-19 pandemic, Steve has endured it all and shares the invaluable lessons he’s learned along the way.


    Steve explores the importance of cultivating the right mindset as a leader—one that prioritises care, connection, and enabling others, rather than control and fear of mistakes. He highlights the power of communication, psychological safety, and a genuine interest in helping others succeed as key pillars of effective leadership during times of upheaval.
