This episode dives deep into the human side of leadership with special guest Susan Power, founder of PowerUp Leadership.

She and Sharon talk through the value of authenticity, tackle myths about introverted leaders, and explore how leaders can build trust by showing up authentically in every situation. 


Susan’s “Three C’s of Leadership”: Clarity, Courage, and Connection act as core principles that can elevate teams and organizations.
