In a world where careers are anything but linear, how do we navigate setbacks and grow stronger through them?
In this honest and energising episode of What Is Your Working Title?, we speak with Iwan de Leeuw—a global HR leader whose journey spans the military, multinational organisations, and the personal upheaval of retrenchment. From losing a long-held role to finding renewed purpose, Iwan shares what it takes to rebuild confidence, rethink success, and lead with greater empathy.
Together, we explore:
✨ Why reinvention often begins with rejection—and how to grow from it
✨ How purpose and contribution matter more than titles or performance metrics
✨ What it means to build resilience over time—not just in moments of crisis
✨ Why career development must be owned by individuals, not outsourced to companies
✨ How connection and compassion shape lasting impact in our working lives
This is not just a conversation about bouncing back. It’s about moving forward—with clarity, courage, and a renewed commitment to who you want to become.
