Description
Connor Sweeney has worked inside some very different companies, from HP and Walmart to Box, WeightWatchers and now Form Health, and he’s seen what happens when businesses grow, restructure, acquire other companies and completely rethink how people work.In this episode of Let’s Table That, Connor talks about the parts of leadership that tend to get messy: keeping culture intact during an acquisition, knowing when a startup actually needs a Chief of Staff, making return-to-office decisions without blindly following everyone else, and learning how to work with people who see things differently than you do.He also shares why being a Chief of Staff taught him more than an MBA, and why empathy ended up becoming one of the biggest leadership lessons of his career.
