Listen in to my interview with Brandon Burton, Founder of ChamberChat Podcast, regarding my own leadership journey. The link to the episode is at the conclusion of this post:
“Lindsay Keisler brings her experience into our discussion this week to share how sometimes thinking like a rookie although on the surface seems like a big disadvantage can actually be leveraged into a great strength.”
“Lindsay is the President & CEO of The Chamber of Catawba County where she has served in various roles before taking on her current responsibilities.”
“As a young Chamber executive, Lindsay admits that she had insecurities and even some imposter syndrome when she first started until she learned to turn her open-minded rookie mentality into opportunity.”
“Lindsay shared some of the advantages of being a rookie that can even be adopted by more seasoned individuals in the Chamber industry if they are aware of this type of mindset.”
“A rookie is willing to take risks. A rookie needs to ask a lot of questions, rather than telling others “how it is”. A rookie brings a fresh set of eyes and is willing to make a change. A rookie also has to leverage the knowledge and skills of those around them.”
