How to Have Impact with Estelle McCartney
Description
What does it really take to lead with purpose in today’s world? In this episode, I chat with Estelle McCartney, CEO of Arctic Shores, about career pivots, privilege, and creating change that matters.
Estelle shares how personal loss and a desire for impact shaped her journey from politics to tech, and why her leadership style is rooted in curiosity, humility, and knowing when to lean in (and when to lean out).
