Leadership and people management can feel like the difference between a business that moves smoothly and one that constantly feels on the edge, and that’s exactly where today’s conversation begins. You’ll hear how the right approach to hiring, communication, and team dynamics can shift a business from constant friction to real momentum. Lindsay White, Leadership Coach, Fractional CHRO, and longtime People Strategy Expert, shares wisdom from 20+ years of seeing what truly helps teams thrive. Her perspective cuts through the noise and gets right to what matters most when you’re trying to grow without burning out.

Lindsay opens up about the traps leaders fall into without even realizing it, and why small, intentional changes can create ripple effects that you can feel immediately. She talks about what real communication looks like, how listening transforms team dynamics, and how to build trust in ways that make your people feel seen and supported.

We also get into why the right people in the right roles matter more than any system or process you could buy, and how Lindsay’s LPC Method brings leadership, people strategy, and culture together in a simple, practical way. She breaks it down so clearly that you’ll probably find yourself rethinking a few things about how your team works. If you’re scaling, stretched thin, or just wanting more ease in how you lead, this episode will give you clarity and direction without adding to your to-do list.
