Leaders Unscripted
Our founder Suzan Bond talks with leaders about the challenges they’ve faced and what they’ve learned.
New episodes each week.
Welcome to the Leaders Unscripted Podcast, where we explore the human side of leadership. I'm your host, Suzan Bond, founder of Constellary, leadership consultant and a former COO.
In this series, we take a practical approach to leadership. We're not here to wax philosophical about the latest trends. We share real stories from real leaders who have faced tough challenges and come out on the other side.
As a former COO, I know that leading through change is not always easy. But it's through these challenges that we learn and grow the most. And it’s not just us that benefit, it’s our whole team.
We talk to leaders who have been in the trenches and know what it takes to make it through. We'll learn about the people and organizational side of leadership, and how these leaders have adapted to new situations, tackled difficult problems, and kept their teams moving forward.
I’ve talked with leaders from companies of all sizes and phases of business from startups like to Stackhawk and Griffin to scaled businesses like GitHub, Hashicorp and Pluralsight to more established ones like Google, Mailchimp, Netflix, and Spotify.
Whether you're a seasoned leader or just starting out, you'll find valuable insights and practical advice in every episode.
