Season 2, Ep. 11 | ‘Bridjr’ To More Human-Designed Experiences: Part 1
Tue Jan 27 2026
In this episode of More Elephant, I sit down with Anita Ghosh, Founder and CEO of Bridjr, for a deeply human conversation about leadership, listening, and what it really takes to build organizations that work for people, not just systems.
Anita’s work sits at the intersection of empathy, technology, and business transformation. However, this conversation goes further than frameworks and models - so much further that we are holding space over two episodes for the conversation.
We talk about the quiet moments that shape careers, the cost of external validation, and what happens when leaders stop trusting themselves. Deeply personal, Anita shares her path from large organizations to founding Bridjr including the moments that forced her to slow down, listen, and choose bravery without a safety net.
We also unpack why so many organizations struggle with change, how internal transformation thinking and impact often lags behind external ambition, and why human adoption is the real driver of ROI in technology. At its core, this episode is about remembering that progress starts with listening and that being human is not a liability in business. It is the advantage.
Key More Elephant Takeaways in this Episode:
Anita explains why organizations often struggle when the inside doesn’t change as quickly as the outside, emphasizing that real business value comes from human adoption and continued use, not just implementation.We discuss how systems that reward performance over alignment can quietly erode a leader’s inner compass.Anita shares how listening opened up new choices for her life and expanded how she saw herself and her purpose.We talk through how leaders grow when they give themselves permission to step off the expected route and create their own story.and more…
