The Dave Crenshaw Success Show

This shift prompted her to move into management consulting, where she discovered her talent for helping senior leaders and executives through behavioral science insights. Caroline talked about the importance of running small experiments before making big career changes, as she did when gradually introducing herself as a coach while still at McKinsey.
