Diane Lee: Wise & Courageous

Welcome to The Wise & Courageous Podcast, where we host conversations with women leaders about how they are seeking and engaging wisdom and courage in their leadership and work in this unique season.

“God are you sure? Did you pick the right person? Why me? You are the only one who thinks I can do this, so tell me, what do I do?... That was a time when I felt like I had to be courageous and really believe in God, trusting that he knew who he chose and that he would equip me with wisdom and knowledge to be obedient and effective in serving the community.” — Diane Lee

Diane Lee, professor in early childhood education at Monterey Peninsula College, and previously Chair of the program, joins Nancy Pedulla on The Wise and Courageous Podcast for a conversation about leadership. 

What happens when you are invited to take a big step in leadership in a place where you had not intended to go? How do you relate others’ expectations and find freedom to lead in unexpected ways? Diane shares her surprise journey to a job she relishes in a place where she did not expect to be. She exposes her sense of imposter syndrome and how she chooses to address it.

For the purposes of this podcast, we are defining leadership as the stewardship of people, culture and purpose, guiding and serving others toward a shared vision or outcomes.

Welcome to the conversation!

— Nancy Pedulla
