In this episode, I speak with Meredith Imes, Managing Director of Emergency Management at Texas Tech University, where she leads campus-wide efforts in preparedness, response, and recovery.
We talk about the importance of mentors, effective communication and collaboration, the importance for leaders to exude calm in a crisis, leading under pressure, how to have tough conversations, and taking care of yourself.
