Drawing from his extensive experience in organizational development and his podcast, David offers a fresh take on what leadership should look like in today’s workplace. Together, David and Robin examine the subtle ways gaslighting can show up in professional settings—often disguised as “just business”—and how leaders can unknowingly perpetuate harm through outdated, control-based models. Listeners will gain actionable tools to recognize toxic leadership behaviors, foster psychological safety, and lead with greater self-awareness and empathy. Whether you're navigating workplace dynamics or working to become a more emotionally intelligent leader yourself, this conversation is a compelling reminder that integrity and clarity are foundational to lasting influence.
