If you’re not leading inclusively, you’re leaving trust, performance, and innovation on the table. In today’s workplaces, teams are more diverse than ever, across culture, generation, identity, and role. But diversity without connection creates friction, not progress. It’s the quality of your connection across difference that determines whether your team collaborates, or fractures.

Too many leaders get stuck in execution mode, drowning in tasks, stretched thin, and holding on too tightly. Strategic delegation isn’t about dropping work on someone else’s desk. It’s about building capability, trust, and shared ownership. When done right, delegation increases engagement, strengthens your bench, and frees you to lead at the level your role requires. When done poorly, or not at all, it creates bottlenecks, burnout, and missed opportunities for growth. In this discussion, Jennie and Craig will help...
