Description

In this segment of "Your New Business Journey" on Passage to Profit Show, our panel tackles a common yet delicate challenge faced by leaders and entrepreneurs: how to respond when a new employee or team member presents an idea you know won’t work. Should you shut it down—or nurture the spark? Hear thoughtful strategies on listening with empathy, encouraging innovation, and turning “bad” ideas into valuable learning moments that could lead to something even better. It's a must-listen for anyone navigating the early stages of business or team-building.


 


Richard Gearhart and Elizabeth Gearhart, co-hosts of Passage to Profit Show have this discussion with Arthur Kappor from Elligint Health, Sherri Dindal from Wholesome Hippy and James Barrood from Innovation+.
