Janet Balis, Managing Director & Partner at BCG
Description
Janet Balis has spent her career at the intersection of media, marketing, and transformation — from Time Warner and AOL to Martha Stewart Living, EY, and now BCG. A connector of people and ideas, she has helped shape how companies adapt to disruption, and how leaders think about influence, innovation, and purpose.
Janet joins the podcast to talk about how AI mirrors the early days of digital, and why asking the right questions is more important than having the answers. She also opens up about friendship, resilience, and her long-running commitment to Cycle for Survival, the charity founded by her late friend Jennifer Goodman Linn.
Jordan and Janet discuss what separates great leaders from merely good ones, the joy of constant reinvention, and how to stay connected — to ideas, to people, and to yourself — no matter what comes next.
