Join me for the career reflections of Jeff Pomranka, executive director of Meals on Wheels. His senior year in college, he switches majors from math to psychology after getting totally hooked from just one psychology class. Preparing him for a life-long career helping people.
Midway in his career, after finding Simon Sinek’s first TED Talk, Jeff discovers clarity about his “why” – helping people live their lives the way they want. He continues to follow Sinek on-line recognizing that staying true to his “why” is what helps him connect with people throughout his various roles and it’s what helped him get the dream job he has now!
What has served Jeff best, according to one of his colleagues, is his ability to stay calm when things get crazy.
Jeff’s words of wisdom: ”Slow is smooth and smooth is fast.”
