The New Leadership Playbook with Lyndsay Dowd

Ready to rethink how you lead?

Rosie hosts Lyndsay Dowd, founder of Heartbeat for Hire, to talk about leading with heart, building a leadership brand, and the messy, beautiful journey of showing up as your most authentic self.

Lyndsay’s career has been anything but linear—from 23 years at IBM to unexpectedly being fired to launching her own leadership consultancy.

It’s a story about resilience, but more importantly, it’s a lesson in how to flip the script when life throws you a curveball.
