What truly drives sustainable business growth?
It’s not strategy alone, it’s leadership behaviour, culture, and the employer brand lived every day.
In this episode of Blu Thread Conversations, hosts Leandra Harris and Stacy Parker of Blu Ivy Group sit down with Bill Williams, leadership expert, author of "Electric Life," and keynote speaker, to unpack the leadership behaviours that fuel performance, engagement, and growth.
Together, they explore:
• Why emotional intelligence is now a non-negotiable leadership skill
• How leadership behaviour directly shapes culture, performance, and the bottom line
• The real reason middle management breaks during growth and transformation
• How leaders can build trust, accountability, and belonging across teams
• Why employer brand is lived through managers — not marketing
• How organizations can scale without losing their culture
• What CEOs must do differently in 2026 to retain talent and drive results
This conversation is essential viewing for:
✔ CEOs and executive teams
✔ HR and People leaders
✔ Employer brand and culture leaders
✔ Organizations scaling across Canada and the United States
✔ Companies navigating growth, transformation, or private equity investment
At Blu Ivy Group, we help organizations build employer brands and cultures that attract, retain, and engage talent — not just in theory, but in everyday leadership behaviour.
