In a time of polarization and noise, what helps us lead with clarity, courage, and connection?
Lorelei Rollings—Director General of Culture and Innovation at the RCMP, global leadership trainer, and certified Leader Character practitioner—joins us to explore how character isn’t just a personal quality, but a practical toolkit for navigating conflict, complexity, and change.
🧠 What you’ll hear:
🛣️ Why character is like guardrails on the road of life
🪞 How strengths, when unchecked, can become liabilities—like integrity turning rigid without empathy
🗣️ Why “Tell me more” might be the most powerful phrase in leadership
⚖️ How temperance and transcendence help us stay grounded in divided times
💥 Why every tough conversation is a character workout
🔍 How character gives us the courage to look inward—and act with integrity
If you care about culture, inclusion, leadership, or simply becoming a better human—this one’s for you.
