[00:00:00] More Elephant Intro
[00:00:38] Jason Rudman: Welcome to the latest edition of the More Elephant podcast in our continuing series on the changing nature of work. Before I let Rosa Sabater speak, here's what I want to tell you about Rosa Sabater!!!
So we've known each other for 20 years. She was my leader's leader's leader at American Express at one time. And I think it's true to say that if you asked people about their experience with Rosa there will still, 20 years later, be a level of reverence and admiration for who she is, how she shows up, and the empathetic style of her leadership.
I think it stays with the people that have been in her orbit for many, many years. And I know that because I spoke to a couple of people. It's also a truism that I still today, when I'm in a situation, will often think back and say, “What would Rosa do? How would Rosa approach this?” So, Rosa, welcome to the More Elephant Podcast. It's been 20 years in the making. I'm thrilled to be talking with you for the next 20, 30, 40 minutes, however long we stretch this out.
[00:01:46] Rosa Sabater: It's great to be here, number one. And number two, I can't think of anybody better to have this conversation with because, as you know, we're chatting a little bit before we started, and every conversation with Jason Rudman is a direct and honest conversation, and I think that's what the world needs. So hooray for More Elephant!
