Description

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Today our Guest is </span><a href="mailto:[email protected]"><span style="font-weight: 400;" data-rich-links="{">Leilani Bloomquist</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">, an independent consultant who focuses on digital transformation, product team leadership and innovation. Leilani is sort of a quadruple threat:</span></p><br/><ul><br/><li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">She knows innovation</span></li><br/><li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">She knows product development and management</span></li><br/><li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">She knows how to guide change in an org</span></li><br/><li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">And, she&rsquo;s seen the good and bad of digital transformation</span></li><br/></ul><br/><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">I really appreciated this talk. The clarity of Leilani&rsquo;s thinking, the empathy and intelligence she brings to her work shouldn&rsquo;t be surprising given all the work she&rsquo;s done in education and healthcare. </span></p><br/><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">She&rsquo;s also got unique insights into doing transformational product work in highly regulated industries like healthcare and financial services. I think you&rsquo;ll find that she&rsquo;s got a cool ability to help teams be in two places at once: The practical reality of now, and the optimistic opportunity of the future. </span></p><br/><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">And, as someone that has a love/hate relationship with jargon I really liked her points on mentorship, helping teams find a common language to cut through the fog of jargon. </span></p> <br/><br/>This is a public episode.
