Description

In today’s workplace, transparency is expected—but how much is too much?


In this episode, I break down the new rules of leadership transparency, spotlighting recent real-world examples from JPMorgan, Meta, Delta, and Business Insider. You’ll hear what those companies got wrong—and what they could have done better.


Plus, I share a practical decision-making filter to help leaders decide what to share, when to share it, and how to do it without eroding trust.


You’ll learn:




  • When transparency builds trust—and when it backfires




  • The difference between honesty and oversharing




  • What to say when you don’t have all the answers




  • A 5-question leadership filter to guide communication




  • How to avoid performative openness and drive real connection




Whether you're a seasoned executive or a first-time manager, this episode is your toolkit for navigating transparency with clarity, empathy, and intention.
