Welcome to a new edition of the Famous Interviews with Joe Dimino series. On this episode, we talk with researcher, educator, executive development leader, and author Dr. John Austin. Dr. Austin is the dean of the Honors College and the P.D. Merrill Endowed Chair of Business at the University of New England. For more than two decades, he has helped professionals, executives, and leaders learn how to lead, adapt, and make effective decisions in uncertain and rapidly changing environments. He believes that every person has the capacity to thrive in a chaotic world and has dedicated his career to developing techniques, strategies, and leadership frameworks that help people build confidence, resilience, adaptability, and clarity under pressure. From his home base on Peaks Island, Maine, we discuss leadership, uncertainty, executive development, decision-making, confidence building, business strategy, education, resilience, psychology, and how people can become stronger and more effective during times of disruption and change. This is a thoughtful and timely conversation filled with practical wisdom and leadership insight. Tune in and enjoy this interview with Dr. John Austin.
