Hacking Your Leadership Podcast

No role plays; just real. Chris & Lorenzo share four decades of combined experience to help you become a more effective leader. Keeping employees engaged and doing their best work today requires leadership that emphasizes soft skills like empathy, emotional intelligence, and a desire to make personal connections. Many leaders want to succeed in this brave new world, but employees continue to report poor engagement and leave companies about every three years.
