Leading with Intent

Betsy Ziegler is the CEO of 1871, a nonprofit in Chicago. She also happens to be a die-hard Ohio Buckeyes fan! Every day for her is filled with problem-solving, interacting with people, and setting priorities. Betsy has had to prioritize what balance looks like for herself and be intentional, in order to live a full, happy life. “If you don’t plan, it doesn’t happen”, she says. Her best advice is to ask for help when it’s needed. It’s easy to be hard on yourself and get discouraged, but it’s a strength to admit your weakness and get back up.
