Welcome to Disrupting Burnout - a podcast where we beat burnout so that you can love your career again!
As we continue our series on Women Who Define Disruption, this week’s guest is disrupting the traditional education system and helping students around the world avoid burnout.
Carrie Zimmerman is the founder of Uncommon Programs and Consulting and has over 18 years of experience in consulting and administration work in higher education and the nonprofit sector.
Her work addresses growing needs within universities to build communities of inclusivity and diversity, rebuild structures and systems that don't support equitable and just environments, and support each member of the community.
Ultimately, Carrie is on a mission to help empower administrators, governing boards, staff, faculty and students to thrive in their careers, embrace their own unique gifts, and be courageous in the face of injustice, bias, and hate.
