Magic in the Room #164: Your Unique Contribution: Courageously Finding your Contribution with Guest Karen Lum

September 6, 2023

In today’s episode of Magic in the Room, we continue our series on finding your unique contribution, which is the intersection of your strengths and values with the needs of your community. Karen Lum joins Hannah and Luke to discuss how leaders can discover their unique contribution using Karen’s leadership framework of self-awareness, situational awareness, caring, and courage.   

 

As leaders understand themselves more fully, they can align their actions to what an organization needs, even when they are not fully supported and require courage. Self-awareness, situational awareness, caring, and courage can also help you evaluate when it is time to leave a company or other community. 

 

Karen is the owner of K. Lum Consulting; an accomplished business coach, corporate trainer and curriculum designer in the areas of leadership, team building, management, sales and new systems implementation. Extensive experience in high-end service (customer experience) in a variety of industries, as well as team and project management.
