  • Dr. Rosie is impressive and relatable!!

    Dr. Rosie is impressive in her range of what she does as a professional and a human! If you’re new, listen to her 4th anniversary show where she pulls in some of the most meaningful and profound insights she has gained from the interviews she has done over the years (on top of all the incredible work she has done with her clients). She is relatable and lays things out in a way that is both simple and inspiring!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Replay: How to Foster a Feedback Culture with Jennifer Loper
Q: What role does psychological safety play in fostering a feedback-rich environment?
It's foundational; without psychological safety, people won't speak up or give honest feedback, so you must build trust and safety first through consistent, caring leadership.
Replay: How to Foster a Feedback Culture with Jennifer Loper
Q: How does C3 operationalize the concept of truth with care in day-to-day leadership?
By structuring regular one-on-ones, encouraging leaders to receive feedback openly, and using 90-day reviews and engagement surveys to ensure actions match stated values.
Replay: How to Foster a Feedback Culture with Jennifer Loper
Q: Could you share more about why clear is kind is important and where that came from?
It comes from Brené Brown's philosophy and a personal realization that being clear about expectations and delivering feedback with care leads to durable trust and better outcomes, both personally and professionally.
Replay: Leading with Heart at Global Scale with Brian Garish
Q: What practice has most helped you stay connected to frontline teams at scale?
Regular, authentic engagement like clinic visits, listening sessions, and role-modeling behaviors that show leaders care about people, not just metrics; this keeps strategy grounded and aligned with daily realities.
Replay: Leading with Heart at Global Scale with Brian Garish
Q: How do you handle underperforming leaders without demotivating the rest of the team?
Address performance with clear expectations, timely feedback, and accountability; you distinguish between personal differences and performance gaps, provide guardrails and support, and ultimately make hard decisions when necessary to protect the broader team and purpose.
