Guy Kawasaki’s Remarkable People
What does leadership look like when the world keeps shifting beneath you? Dara Treseder—Chief Marketing Officer of Autodesk—joins Guy to share how people-first decision-making and focusing on what you can control help leaders stay grounded in uncertain times.
Dara breaks down how Autodesk’s design-and-make platform touches everything from buildings to Oscar-winning films, and why bold moves like partnering with the LA28 Olympics require clarity, conviction, and resilience. She also speaks candidly about navigating bias, imposter syndrome, and the pressure of being “the only” in many rooms.
This conversation is a powerful reminder that courage isn’t loud—it’s consistent, intentional, and rooted in how you show up for others and for yourself.
