ATG 230: Leaders Who Can't Be Questioned End Up Doing Questionable Things
Want to know the simplest leadership principle that makes people elbow each other when I share it on stage? "Leaders who can't be questioned end up doing questionable things." In this episode, I'll share how the gap between the boardroom and the break room creates problems, why your team might be editing their feedback by 15%, and my embarrassing story about a CEO with terrible Zoom lighting (spoiler: everyone lied and said it looked great). Whether you're leading a company, a family, or just yourself, I'll show you how to create an environment where honest feedback thrives instead of dies. Because the higher you climb on the success ladder, the more opportunities you'll have to behave poorly, and the more you need people brave enough to tell you the truth.
