What does it take to lead with courage, curiosity, and heart in today’s workplace?

In this week’s episode of the Finally Seen™ podcast, we welcome Christie Mann, bestselling author, executive coach, and co-founder of Uplevel Productions, to unpack the truth about leadership, emotional intelligence, and creating cultures where people actually thrive.
