Episode 27 - Bridging the Gap with Jordan Sanchez

Tune into episode 27 which features Jordan Sanchez in his first podcast interview ever! He stops by to share:

-- the importance of narrative-building;

-- the biggest compliment of his career; and

-- how he's disconnecting achievement from his identity.

As a Senior Partnerships Lead at IDEO.org, Jordan focuses on building and nurturing relationships with partner organizations who share our mission to disrupt systems of inequity and expand prosperity in communities across the United States.

Prior to joining IDEO.org, Jordan launched and served as Executive Director of an organization focused on disaster recovery and building resilient infrastructure in Puerto Rico, leading the organization's strategy, building a team of 30 people. Before that, Jordan built relationships and honed his strategy chops at organizations like the Clinton Global Initiative, WPP, and JP Morgan Chase.

Jordan holds a bachelor's degree in Economics with a minor in Organizational Leadership from Rutgers University. He sits on the 20|30 Leadership Council of the Clinton Foundation and has also served as an advisor to the PowHERful foundation and Teach for America. When he's not at work, you can find Jordan enjoying craft beer in upstate New York, spending time with his kids, or curating his sneaker collection—sometimes all in the same day.

His #TNWIDTakeaway: "I have a really deep urge to know how everything works...I know that all these things are working around me either effecting me positively or not, and I want to know why and how they work."
