Episode 6: Siobhan O’Riordan

In this episode of the "Lead and Live Well" podcast, Erin Cox and Scott Knox interview Siobhan O'Riordan, a former teacher turned Gallup-certified CliftonStrengths coach and social sector consultant. Siobhan shares her career journey, highlighting pivotal moments influenced by both intention and chance. Ever an educator, Siobhan offers practical advice on understanding and leveraging your strengths, how reflection and feedback can fuel personal and professional growth, and strategies to articulate your multi-faceted skills. This episode - and much of Siobhan’s work - will be particularly intriguing for our listeners who are “generalists,” which Siobhan describes as follows:

“A generalist’s expertise is intentionally broad; they excel at understanding an organization as a whole entity, identifying and filling gaps, and seizing opportunities to catalyze and champion new projects. Generalists are both interested in figuring out complex problems and finding ways in which they can seed solutions and help the team meet the resulting challenges.”

Join Scott, Erin, and Siobhan - all Generalists themselves - for this enlightening conversation!
