Media & Talks

I’ve had the honour of sharing my insights on sustainable business growth, intentional leadership, and founder well-being through respected platforms including The Times, Enterprise Nation, and LSE Generate (London School of Economics - Accelerate Programme)

  • Leadership in Times of AI | Guest Speaker - LSE Summer School Panel, July 2025

    A live panel discussion exploring the evolving role of leadership in an AI-powered world. Arianna was invited as a guest speaker to share her expertise on strategic discernment, ethical integration of AI in business, and how founders can scale with clarity in the face of rapid technological change. The session brought together international students, future entrepreneurs, and thought leaders for an energising conversation on purpose-driven leadership in the age of intelligent tools.

  • Guest Podcast Speaker - Between Data & Risk: Leading from the Fire

    I joined the Between Data & Risk podcast for a raw and honest conversation about the emotional toll of startup leadership. In “Leading from the Fire,” I sat down with Dr. Marian Siwiak to unpack what it really means to lead when everything feels urgent, the stakes are personal, and burnout is never far away.

    We covered:
    - Company values as a lever for sustainable growth
    - Delegating without guilt
    - Early signs of founder burnout
    - Building remote culture without micromanagement
    - Reconnecting with purpose when chaos takes over

    Whether you're growing your first team or scaling fast, this episode offers a moment of clarity in the middle of the noise.

    Featured Contributor | Forbes Leadership Strategy Column, May 2025

    In this Forbes Leadership Strategy column, I was invited to contribute insights on how founders can use short solo workcations to unlock sharper decision-making, regain mental clarity, and prevent burnout. Drawing from my personal practice—and the methods I use with clients—I shared how even brief time away from daily operations can create the conditions for breakthrough thinking and long-term business clarity.

    My feature highlights a core pillar of my work with high-performing founders: creating intentional space to scale with purpose, not pressure.

  • Feature - The Times - How Business Mentors Are Helping Founders Scale Intentionally

    I was featured in The Times in an article highlighting the growing role of experienced business mentors in helping founders navigate complex growth stages. I shared my approach to sustainable scaling and why clarity, not hustle, is the most valuable currency for entrepreneurs today.

  • Speaker - LSE Generate: Female Founders Workshop

    I was invited by LSE Generate to host a closed-door session for their Female Founders community. We explored founder fatigue, emotional bottlenecks, and the strategies that help businesses grow in alignment with their leaders.

    As a Business Mentor for LSE Generate, I also support the programme more broadly — including guest expert roles in pitch competitions and entrepreneurial sessions.

    While the workshop recording was reserved for pre-registered participants, much of the content is echoed in my public resources, including the Scaling Without Spiralling™ Masterclass.

    I delivered this live expert session for the Enterprise Nation community, helping founders navigate uncertainty, pivot effectively, and build a business that thrives no matter the challenges.
    The workshop explored 1. How to stay adaptable in an ever-changing market. 2. How to create scalable and efficient operations. 3. How to build a resilient leadership mindset.
