Embracing Radical Personal Responsibility: A New Era of Leadership with Jen Szpigiel

I am thrilled to have the amazing Jen Szpigiel joining me to share her incredible journey in the world of entrepreneurship and the growth she has experienced as a leader. Jen is a true beacon of hope and her story is bound to motivate and encourage you to reach new heights in your own career.

Together, she and I explore the concept of creating a ripple effect in the workplace, and we discuss how setting boundaries can actually propel us towards our goals and help us become the best version of ourselves. Jen reminds us of the importance of embracing the many facets of our identity and avoiding the trap of limiting ourselves to preconceived notions of who we are.

Jackie Koch

Hey, I’m Jackie Koch. I have over 15 years of experience prospecting talent and building teams for Fortune 500 companies, startups and small businesses in all types of industries.  Technically, I have an MBA from Concordia University, although I’d argue I learned more about growing and scaling a modern business over the last 5 years in the LA tech start up scene. There I built out recruiting and People Operations teams for high growth tech start ups. I love entrepreneurs and being one at heart, I started my own business during the pandemic. I’m the founder and CEO of People Principles where I help founders scale through fractional recruiting and people operations services.
