In Episode 20 of the Talent Sherpa Podcast, Jackson Lynch explores one of the most overlooked challenges for new human capital leaders: building trust fast.
You’ve got the title, the plan, and the pressure to deliver. But none of it matters if you can’t connect—with your stakeholders, your peers, and the informal power players who really shape outcomes.
This episode breaks down how to become a superconnector—someone who doesn't just build relationships but engineers influence across the organization.
From mapping informal networks to landing early wins, leveraging data, driving cross-functional collaboration, and practicing real empathy, Jackson outlines the playbook for earning credibility quickly and driving impact that sticks.
If you’re stepping into a new HR leadership role, this episode is your strategic starting line.
