Listen "Sarah B. Nelson: Healing the Collaboration Pain Point"

"It's all about how you work with teams, not as a collection of individuals, but as a team, as an organism essentially. And that just completely changed the way that I facilitate and work with teams." Sara Nelson is the Senior Director of Design at PepsiCo, where she leads the charge of design thinking programs forward to drive key outcomes. Sara seeks to uncover the patterns & relationships her teams practice to develop greater strategies and leverage better results.
