Catalysts see the future before others do—but turning vision into action takes more than just insight. Heather Jerrehian, VP of Product Management at ServiceNow, shares how Catalysts synthesize vast amounts of information quickly, spotting opportunities others can’t yet see. But what sets true Catalyst leaders apart is their ability to inspire action—rallying others to bring those bold ideas to life. But sometimes as Catalyst leaders, we’re the ones who need inspiration. That’s where the Catalyst Leadership Trust comes in. It’s a space where senior leaders connect, share strategies, and accelerate the transformation they see so clearly. Because vision alone isn’t enough—Catalysts need a community to make it real. Apply for the Catalyst Leadership Trust now: https://lnkd.in/eEsgyHUK
