Quiet Impact Podcast: Spotlight Quiet Achiever ~ Tom West

 ~Nerding Out About Improving the World~ Welcome to this episode of the Quiet Impact Podcast.  We had the chance to have a conversation with Spotlight Achiever, Thomas West Owner/operator of the Green Dot Consulting Group - a small continuous improvement company that is obsessed with installing improvement cultures. Tom has been addicted to the culture shaping powers of continuous improvement for about 18 years now.... since he was formally introduced to the practice in grad school. Not what you typically think when you think 'nerd' and 'continuous improvement'.  It's more than solving problems.  It's navigating the space between success and significance. At the personal level and at an organizational level.   In This Episode, We Discuss:Change is hard.. And there is no need to make things more complicated by presenting process improvement in a complex, numbers-centered fashion.Why he believes it is important to remind people that process improvement is just as much about the people side of change as it is anything else. How being a leader doesn't mean you don't still get nervous when you are called to speak. Going from employee to entrepreneur: How he knew when to take the leap.About Tom West:Owner/operator of the Green Dot Consulting Group Connect with Tom:Website:  www.thegreendotgroup.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/improvementnerd/LinkedIn Community: Lean Coffee IndyPodcast: https://www.thegreendotgroup.com/podcast-2/About the Quiet Impact Podcast:Hosted by Stephanie Oden, founder of The Introvert Achievers Network and creator of The Quiet Impact Method™, this podcast celebrates leaders and entrepreneurs who make waves—quietly and with purpose.
