Podcast Episode #016 – Innovators, Creators and Builders Series with Jessie Newburn Seeing Opportunities Before Everyone Else
In episode #016 of the Podcast, I chat with Jessie Newburn, a friend, aunty, mentor, and social connector.
Jessie Newburn is the Principal of GenerationsWork.
She is a leading expert in generational intelligence, focused on helping executives drive organizational change in a multi-generational workforce.
She focuses on unlocking the superpowers of every generation and empowering each to step into its role with the purpose of accelerating organizational success.
Her recommendations reduce friction, speed up change adoption and eliminate false stereotypes. She has a deep understanding of the worldviews of each generation and the cyclical patterns of society.
She leverages that knowledge to provide actionable insights for organizational leaders to understand the cycle we are in today, the role each generation plays in that cycle, and how to align individuals for rapid organizational change toward a generationally empowered future.
A few of the questions I asked Jessie;
How did she discover this work, how did she build the Hocoblogs, and how anyone can build their own thing too.
And how she built Generations Works.
How was she able to create her own degree years ago when in college?
How does one do work that one loves, every job Jessie has had seems to be one she loved.
I asked Jessie to share what she’s learned about building things and would love to pass it on to others.
We talked Pop Culture, craigslist, dating and Biden.

And at the end of our interview, Jessie and I had signed off and the recording was over. I mentioned to Jessie that she has a way of answering the questions I asked her effortlessly and going further to lead into other questions I had lined up. Jessie shared that she was using the STAR method of answering interview questions.
I wanted to pass that tip to you too… this will change your life literally if you’ve never heard of it before.
According to indeed.com; the STAR interview method is a technique you can use to prepare for behavioral and situational interview questions. STAR stands for situation, task, action, and result.
This method will help you prepare clear and concise responses using real-life examples. I’m linking this article from indeed.com so you can prep for your next interview.

Why Innovators, Creators, and Builders? Why the Innovators series? Well, I just know that I can do a little bit better when I have a cheat sheet on how to do a thing.
