In this episode, Dr. JBT explores a leadership essential: transparency. While transparency builds trust and respect, sharing information without the right context can create confusion, frustration, and even resistance.
Through two real-life examples, one that caused misalignment and another that led to team buy-in, Dr. JBT breaks down the importance of timing, communication method, and stakeholder involvement when sharing decisions.
Key takeaways:
Why when and how you share information matters as much as what you share
How to prevent misinterpretation by involving your team early
The power of 1x1s, strategic timing, and feedback loops in the decision-making process
Practical questions to ask before sharing updates with your team
If you’ve ever struggled with how much to say, when to say it, or how to say it, this episode is for you.
