Bringing a "tequio" mindset to leadership
Manage episode 326913779 series 3343481
On this episode, we sit down with Arlene Mendoza, a dynamic leader in our community with 14 years experience in the tech space, who recently pivoted to Software Product Strategy/Management in the Social Enterprise space and sits on the Board of Moran Consulting and Pacific School of Religion. She was invited to be a guest speaker in our certificate program, talking about creative communication, because of her success around transformational leadership and her passions at the intersection of spirituality, technology and innovation.
She talks with us about what communication looks like when bringing together a variety of perspectives. We also hear about spirituality in the tech space, leadership wisdom from ancestors, and the Oaxacan concept of 'tequio' in relation to the collective. She sheds light on integrating her commitments to justice, spirituality, and creativity and offers wisdom and inspiration for emerging leaders who may be feeling stuck in this moment.
"With tequio, I didn't realize it was a philosophy of my grandparents. I just thought it was a way of life. Every culture, every ancestral wisdom, has those nuggets of what some of our ancestors did that contributed, in some way, to improve the collective."
