In this episode, host Jacqueline Frost talks to Caroline Brown, PhD Partner at Deloitte
Caroline reflects on her journey of self-awareness and leadership growth, sparked by a pivotal career setback when she is passed over for a promotion she expects to receive. She shares how this moment revealed a key blind spot: her exceptional ability to see clear strategic steps is not always matched by her ability to bring others along - assuming they share her clarity and failing to explain the “why” behind her direction.
Caroline highlights the power of storytelling and analogies to make complex ideas accessible, especially in pioneering, first-of-their-kind projects. Closing the episode by sharing the mantra she lives by: “Just say yes - Life is so much more exciting and interesting when you just say yes, it’s a much harder path, but oh my goodness, it’s so much more interesting.”
