Power of Stories with Sarah Goodall

Loading player...
Learning her team's lived experience changed how Sarah leads.

Sarah Goodall is an entrepreneur who turned her love of social media into an award-winning business - Tribal Impact - which has grown to 25 employees over nearly 10 years.

In this open and sometimes vulnerable conversation, Sarah shows how opening about their lived experience of different kinds of diversity helped her team build psychological safety and helped her understand neurodiversity and health issues in her own family better. She believes she's more empathetic as a result.

Sarah is a collaborative and trusting leader, who sees leadership as an ongoing learning journey.

She explains how Tribal Impact helps executives develop their digital presence in a hybrid working world and talks about how her own reputation has evolved as separate but connected to Tribal Impact's brand.
