Introducing Chief Change Officer, a modernist community for change progressives in organizational and personal transformation // Since I was 15, I’ve survived and thrived through 18 career transitions and 3 episodes of mental illness over 36 years // I created this podcast for people who aspire to make change ambitiously. My global guests and I are here to impart human intelligence on how to pursue that change with head and heart, love and logic, practice and theory // We don’t sell success stories; we tell lived, real stories // The title ‘Chief Change Officer’ embodies my belief that mastery in managing change, overcoming challenges, and catalyzing progress transcends boundaries, cultures, industries, and organizations. Everyone has the potential to be a Chief Change Officer, charting their own path and setting their own rules in both life and career // Reach out to Vince Chan on Linkedin and Thread@thevincechan for enquiries // Ready to lead your own change?
