Navigate Forward’s Post

What’s the biggest risk you’ve ever taken? Our CEO Anne Sample answers that (and other) provocative questions in this short leadership profile for the Minneapolis/St. Paul Business Journal (MSPBJ). She says, “In 2018, I transitioned from being a corporate HR leader to the sole owner of Navigate Forward, a boutique consulting firm focused on executive career services. The transition to business ownership came with valuable lessons: the importance of staying focused on our unique value and differentiators, listening to your clients, learning before making changes, and taking calculated risks. Don’t be afraid to try new things. If you fail, fail fast and learn from it. Above all, I realized that success hinges on the strength of the team—nurturing and retaining talent while consistently bringing in exceptional new members as we expand. This journey has been more work than I could have ever anticipated but also incredibly enjoyable and fulfilling.” See more insights from Anne and other top female executives in this story: https://lnkd.in/gvAqMBYZ
