How I went from High School dropout to a CEO | Jess Karlsson | TEDxUWA

2020 was all about ‘pivoting’ organisations, companies, products, and services. Jess Karlsson had experience in this, even prior to her career as a CEO, having transformed her life. In 2000 Jess dropped out of high school, and was technically homeless, couch surfing, however this wasn’t her rock bottom, and for the next two years she was in a downward spiral. Yet, in 2010, Jess became Australia’s youngest ever YMCA CEO. Jess shares her life lessons and the story of this incredible transformation, recounting how she was able to ‘pivot’ her life, and how she now applies these lessons to leading organisational transformation. Jess’s executive leadership & management experience spans across private, commercial and not-for-profit sectors. Over the past 15 years, Jess has managed and led recreation centres, health, community, disability, and youth services, across QLD, NT and WA. During Jess’s 6.5 years at Cahoots, the team of Board, staff and volunteers together transformed the organisation, more than quadrupled in size and continues to evolve and flourish to date. Jess has dedicated her life to positively impacting the lives of young people, and helping keep them safe, whilst providing them with opportunities to live their best life. Jess proudly commenced as CEO at Scouts WA in February 2022, and is now focused on working with all its stakeholders to continue building the brand, community impact, and sustainability of Scouts in WA. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
