Why Your Team Stopped Telling You the Truth

What if the biggest thing holding your business back isn't your team, your competition, or the market? What if it's you? Author and keynote speaker Schalee Sanchez joins Crystal Williams to break down the difference between confidence and ego, and why humility might be your biggest leadership advantage. If your team never pushes back in meetings, your turnover keeps climbing, or you can't take a day off without your phone blowing up, this one's for you. Schalee shares the Challenger lesson every leader needs to hear, how to rebuild trust with small moves, and a simple 3-day challenge to help you let go of control.
