Listen "Jim Olson, CCO, The African Leadership University | Ep #37"
Episode Synopsis
Talk about daring to be deliberate! Jim Olson took the bold step to reach out to the Founder of African Leadership University after reading about the organization in Fast Company magazine's issue on most innovative companies. Now he's in Mauritius heading up communications. In this episode, Jim tells the story of how he landed in a very unexpected place -- an African island in the Indian Ocean. As the chief communications officer and executive in residence, Jim is leading communications and teaching story telling courses at an innovative educational institution that believes in missions not majors. Listen in to Jim's analogy of how careers are like mountain climbing. His inspirational tale reminds us to be open to opportunities, take risks and notice that while the highest peaks are awesome, sometimes the vistas are even more amazing on the lesser known peaks. © 2019 Angee Linsey Visit: LinseyCareers.com Email: [email protected] @LinseyCareers on Twitter Linsey Careers on LinkedIn Produced by Podcast Prowess
