Leah Craig Fieser

In this week’s episode, we had the pleasure of speaking with Leah Craig Fieser, Executive Director at Brother Wolf Animal Rescue.In honor of National Adopt a Shelter Pet Day we are interviewing Leah Craig Fieser, the Executive Director of Brother Wolf Animal Rescue in Asheville, NC. We invited Leah to speak with us about her team as one of our goals is to bring awareness to adopting senior pets, and chose Brother Wolf, as I adopted my senior pup, Weezie from their rescue in 2019.  Weezie was a bit older than 10 years old at the time, but still has the energy of a 6-year-old :) I am dedicated to raising awareness about adopting senior pets as they have often, like Weezie, been in family homes for many years, and adjusting to a shelter can be difficult. While they may come with unique needs, animal rescues and shelters can work with you to find the right match for you and your family, and a senior pet can be a wonderful companion -  I know my senior pup has been a welcome addition to the family. Show Highlights 1)  Leah speaks to how she has helped build communication channels and fostered feedback from all key stakeholders (17:42)2)  How Leah and the team have managed change while fostering their organizational culture (27:29)3) Creating the line of sight from an individual’s role to the broader vision and strategy.
