Reflecting on a conversation with Hadi Awada, President of Axalta Mobility Coatings, Jan explores the guilt and pressure many leaders feel to stay "always on" and why it's vital to step back and recharge.
Jan also shares exciting professional developments, including two new projects: an innovative solution for creating multilingual internal podcasts using a combination of AI and human expertise and the upcoming "AutoCulture 2.0: Leading with Gravitas" online course centered around the 21 Traits of Authentic Leadership.
On a personal note, Jan shares her experience of moving her daughter into a high-rise in Detroit, reflecting on how much the city has evolved over the past 30 years.
