Albert Waitt, President of Operations at Smitty's Entertainment, shares a grounded perspective on why fear quietly limits growth inside teams and organizations. In this episode, we talk about how leaders unintentionally create pressure, how mistakes too often get punished, and what it looks like to build environments where people feel safe to try. Albert explains why calm leadership, perspective, and trust matter more than urgency or control. This conversation is a reminder that real progress starts when fear is removed, not reinforced.
