Welcome to The Engineer Whisperer Podcast on Transition! A place where we change how we think about change, and we discover that we are more skilled, experienced, and capable of managing any change because we have lived through lots of transitions that got us where we are today. And through those transitions we learned about ourselves, our strengths, gained confidence, and grew resilient to whatever life threw at us.

As I am meeting interesting people, I have decided to sit down and invite them to share their stories on their transitions. My belief is unmanaged transitions make change unmanageable.

Every day we are going through some kind of a transition. If we believe that we can manage these transitions, we will become better at managing the changes in our lives, too.

Today my guest is Erin Chase, Director, Operations Excellence, Digital Manufacturing & CI at Johnson Controls.

“I can be confident and humble at the same time.”

How do you build a good working relationship with your peers? How do you figure out your new director role at a new company? How do you build a successful transition plan for yourself?

This is a fascinating conversation with Erin where she shares the answers to all these questions and more. You don’t want to miss this one!

Find out how Erin adopted a different mindset that transitioned her into the career and successful life she has today.

Thanks for listening!
