Leading from Here

Conversations with the leaders shaping what’s next

What does it take to lead through change, make defining decisions and bring people with you?

Leading from here is a new video series from Goodbody, created in partnership with The Currency. Hosted by Tom Lyons, Co-Founder and CEO of The Currency, it features candid conversations with some of Ireland’s leading business figures.

Going beyond the job title, the series explores the experiences, turning points and perspectives that have shaped how they lead, and how they are preparing their businesses for what comes next.

First episode featuring Lorna Conn, CEO of Cpl

In the first episode of Leading from here, Lorna Conn, CEO of Cpl, reflects on her journey to leadership and the realities of leading one of Ireland’s largest employers through a period of rapid transformation.

She speaks candidly about protecting culture as ownership changes, adapting to AI and emerging technologies, encouraging diverse thinking, and creating an environment where people can innovate, learn and move forward together.

“I think the best leaders are unapologetically themselves.”

For Lorna Conn, authenticity is fundamental to leadership. As she explains, people want leaders who are real, who “walk the talk” and who create the trust that allows others to follow.
