In this episode of Byte-Sized HR, we’re joined by Dawn Krusch—leadership development specialist and founder of Psych Around the Globe—to explore one of the most persistent problems in modern organizations: why we continue to promote people into leadership without preparing them to lead.
We unpack:
Why 60% of new managers never receive any formal training (Wharton Executive Education)
The hidden costs of promoting based on technical performance alone
The role of emotional intelligence and mindfulness in the modern leadership toolkit (Center for Creative Leadership)
How to build leadership pipelines that actually work
How Dawn’s initiative, Psych Around the Globe, is creating space for deeper, more human leadership conversations
