Games Leadership Retrospective: Alice Bowman - "How to Know When You're Done Cooking"

Join Alice Bowman for her talk – "How to Know When You're Done Cooking" – an exploration of the challenges of knowing when you're truly ready.

Alice Bowman will delve into the complexities of recognising when it's time to take the next step - whether that's moving into a Leadership role, advancing in your career, starting a new Studio, or something else. Driven by ambition and impatience but held back by anxiety and doubt, Alice shares her personal journey of learning to manage pace and timing.

In this talk, Alice will discuss times when she jumped the gun, moved too slowly, or hit the mark just right. She’ll also share practical tips on self-reflection and finding the right pace in both personal and professional growth.
