How To Navigate Accelerated Growth And Stay “Chill” As A Leader With Vinnie Rossi, VP Engineering @ Fanatics

Season 2 Episode 24

It is an absolute pleasure to bring this interview to you with global tech leader Vinnie Rossi who has a refreshing approach to leadership, and an awesome career story to share.


Working in fast-growing Tech organisations is exciting on one hand and full of opportunities for growth and development, yet can also be overwhelming and tricky to navigate.  What I love about Vinnie is his ability to stay cool - calm - collected, regardless of the challenges and accelerated growth going on around him.  


There are insights and lessons for every leader within this interview.

  • How to stay “chill” as a leader during accelerated organisational growth
  • What it means to be a leader, and how to grow your leadership career
  • The importance of having a support crew around you 
  • Navigating uncertainty; why all leaders need to learn this skill
  • Tips on moving into a strategic leadership role
  • Time-blocking; why you need to be in the driving seat with your calendar
  • Building and leading a 100% remote team
  • The power of just “going” to overcome decision paralysis.... 
  • How to make time for life in a world that is constantly “on”


Vinnie is a legend and I feel privileged to have had the opportunity to partner with him in the past as he navigated a few of his bold moves.  I hope you enjoy listening to this chat as much as I enjoyed having it!
