S2 Ep16 Ann Humes on resilience, fractional leadership, and rethinking success

  • Summary

  • In this episode of Change Unfiltered, host Angela Scott chats with Ann Humes, a former Microsoft leader turned entrepreneur and executive coach, about her remarkable journey from corporate life to owning a restaurant, and eventually developing a unique model for fractional leadership.

    Ann shares:

    • How a Foo Fighters’ song has become an anthem for her resilience
    • Why leaving Microsoft to open a restaurant allowed her to see the importance of trust, working on the business rather than in it, and learning from every experience.
    • Her belief that true success comes from collaboration—not being “self-made”—and how a solid support system is essential for sustainable growth.
    • How she co-developed a new approach to fractional leadership, bringing in “fire jumpers” for rapid, high-impact contributions that allow businesses to scale quickly.
    • Her advice on how to tune into your inner signals, helping you uncover the answers within and recognise when it’s time to make a change.
