Leadership & Wellbeing Podcast with Helene Mensler

What does it take to lead with clarity and resilience in a complex environment?
In this episode, Helene Mensler, Leader of the Year at SIG, shares her perspective on leadership — focusing on decision-making, feedback, and maintaining balance in demanding roles. One idea stands out: leadership requires clarity—making decisions, explaining the “why,” and focusing on what can be influenced.

At the same time, curiosity and resilience remain essential to sustain performance. Together, these form a simple leadership equation: Clarity + Kindness + Curiosity + Resilience. 

 

Helene also shares a practical approach to feedback (EECC) and reinforces a core principle: Feedback = Care personally + Challenge directly.
