Safety And Risk SuccessThe Importance Of Emotional Safety, with Cara Cunniff If you think "emotions" and "the workplace" don't belong in the same sentence, think again. Emotional culture is influencing your safety culture, performance, and leadership impact, whether you realise it or not. I'm joined by Cara Cunniff, an expert in emotional culture and connection, to challenge the old-school mindset and explore how feelings drive behaviour, decision-making, and ultimately success. Cara shares why being "emotionally attuned" isn't fluffy, it's foundational. We also unpack her experience from military life to entrepreneurship, and how leaders can start small but meaningful shifts to create safer, more connected teams.
