How do I define success—and how does that shape the decisions I make? In this episode of Transformative Leadership Conversations, I have the pleasure of chatting with Cherie Hu, a music industry expert and the founder of Water & Music. Together, we dive into decision-making in both creative and business landscapes, exploring how our interpretations of success can shape our paths and the strategies we choose.

You’ll here them discuss:

• Redefining Success: Leaders should understand that success can be defined in various ways depending on context, extending beyond just revenue metrics to include broader impacts and outcomes.
• Balancing Risk and Stability: Having a stable foundation is crucial for organizations, as it allows leaders to take calculated creative risks without putting their well-being or financial health at risk.
• Value of Experimentation: Embracing iterative experiments provides valuable insights and data, helping leaders make informed decisions and refine their strategies more effectively.
• The Power of Storytelling: Leaders can effectively communicate difficult decisions and rally support by crafting compelling narratives that make complex truths more relatable and understandable.
• Influence of Culture and Values: The culture of a company and its commitment to social impact significantly shape decision-making processes and how relationships with stakeholders are developed and maintained
