Senior Leadership on the Price Writers Podcast Episode 43

In this episode of the Price Writer Podcast, Jeremy Keating and Catrin Townsend discuss Senior Leadership: An Essential Guide for Actuaries by Julia Lessing. This is a leadership book designed to be worked through rather than skimmed, using practical exercises, reflections, and prompts drawn from real leadership situations. We explore what changes as you move from management into senior leadership, why leadership becomes less technical and more people-focused, and how often our stated values differ from how we actually spend our time.  The conversation also touches on the importance of thinking deeply rather than reacting quickly, and whether senior leadership is something you truly want or simply the next step you have been aiming for.   This episode is for actuaries and pricing professionals who are stepping into senior roles, aspiring to them, or already there and reflecting on how leadership works in practice.   Price Writers transforms pricing professionals into the most respected leaders in insurance.
