Sinopse

Prue Mackenzie is quite simply one of the most impressive people I have ever met. Beneath her easy going manner and quick wit lies formidable intelligence, a wickedly competitive streak and lofty ambition. Prue graduated from her commerce degree with honours and at the very top of the class. At 29 she became a vice president at the global financial giant Credit Suisse. She’s a Harvard Business School Graduate. Currently she’s a vice president at Aurizon - Australia’s largest freight company. All that is very impressive – especially when you consider that she’s only 35. But as you know, being impressive isn’t enough to get you on the Team Guru Podcast. The thing I most like about this chat with Prue is her keen awareness of herself as a person and as a leader. In this episode you’ll hear her talk explicitly about her journey as a leader, what she’s learned from mentors, the value she places on being part of a team, her thoughts on learning about the theory of leadership, and the challenges she has
