They need to understand their people and deal with those emotions with this transparency that more and more employees are looking for.”“We are truly humans at work. And if we fail to recognize that, we fail to lead altogether.”“We need trust to change and organize an organization. Trust is only received when showing one’s humanness.”“Psychological safety really does lead to interpersonal bravery and courage.”“Corporations have the moral obligation to take care of their people.”“Without clarity and honesty, we simply do not progress.”“There is not one recipe for being a good leader.
