The Career Refresh with Jill Griffin: Work, Leadership & What’s Next
The Career Refresh is for experienced leaders and ambitious professionals ready for their next era of leadership, whether that means leading with greater influence, stepping into executive leadership, or making a strategic career move. You’ll learn practical leadership and career strategies to think strategically, communicate precisely, delegate effectively, navigate organizational politics, build presence, lead through change and ambiguity, make better decisions, and position yourself for what’s next.
Hosted by Jill Griffin, a leadership strategist with more than 20 years of experience advising senior leaders at Microsoft, Coca-Cola, Samsung, The Federal Reserve, Meta, Google, Hilton Hotels, Notion Labs, plus founder-led organizations. Jill brings practical insight and real-world experience to the challenges leaders face at work and throughout their careers. Leadership has changed. Most leadership advice hasn’t. The next level of leadership is becoming the kind of leader others trust to navigate change, make the call, and move things forward without having to carry it all yourself.
The Career Refresh is a Top 2% globally ranked leadership podcast.
