Episode 38: The “Contentment Commitment” with Tim Streeter

Tim Streeter is the classic example of Daniel Pink’s A Whole New Mind, living out the power of using both left brain and right brain simultaneously in his Global Talent Acquisition leadership roles at Whirlpool and Accenture, and in the rest of his life. Where does he find the time and energy to flex into both realms in everything he does? That’s Tim’s secret, which he gladly shares in his book, The Contentment Commitment, and on Episode 38 of Big Fish in the Talent Pool. With degrees in Economics and Math, we could expect him to be all quantitative analysis and data, on which he does rely heavily. But he’s also a great communicator, a strong people leader, a competitive soccer player, an author, and a musician, having made 9 albums over the past 10 years. Tim is creating his own legacy one purposeful decision at a time. Listen and be inspired!
