Creating Greater Impact and Breaking the Expert Paradox with Dr Karen Wilson

Business Habitat with Sam Dean

In Episode 96, Sam teams up with Dr Karen Wilson, Clinical Neuropsychologist and Director of West LA Neuropsychology. Amongst Dr Wilson's many accolades, most recently are the Forbes next 1000 and the Amex 100 for 100 Founders for Change. Dr Wilson is the Founder of ChildNEXUS, a web application that provides information to parents who have children struggling with neurodevelopmental or social-emotional issues. Dr Wilson moved into Neuropsychology in graduate school when she realised she didn't like the sight of blood. She learned quickly that pivoting her interests and applying her knowledge and expertise to a broader range of activities was the best way for her to evolve and follow her passions. Frustrated by the linear nature of person to person consulting, Dr Wilson sought out more effective ways of disseminating information to the people who needed it, in this case, primarily teachers and parents. In this conversation Sam and Dr Wilson explore the similarities that exist across expert businesses and note that irrespective of the discipline, whether it be medical, business or other professional fields, the obstacles to growth remain the same. Dr Wilson shares why it was important to her to reach more people and her views on overcoming the barriers to communication that exist across the board. This podcast dovetails neatly into the discussion around moving towards a broader and more effective platform, and making the most of time and effort in the process.
