E72 - The Wisdom Of Uncertainty - Podcast with Maggie Jackson

The Inner Game of Change

Welcome to the Inner Game of Change Podcast, uncovering the layers of complexity of organisational change with some of the bright minds in the field.
I’m thrilled to be joined by Maggie Jackson, an award-winning journalist and author, celebrated for her insightful exploration of uncertainty, the impact of technology on our lives, and the science of attention.
Her latest book, Uncertain: The Wisdom and Wonder of Being Unsure, uncovers how uncertainty is often misunderstood but can actually promote open-mindedness and innovation.
In this episode, Maggie shares her insights on how embracing uncertainty can help us navigate and lead through change, turning unpredictability into a tool for growth and adaptability.
I am grateful to have Maggie chatting with me today.
