If you’ve ever said, “I just need to manage my time better,” or “If they were more efficient, we’d be fine,” this episode is for you.
In today’s conversation, we’re flipping the script on strengths and weaknesses at work. While most people focus on improving tactical skills like organization or productivity, the real game-changer is how we show up relationally. You’ll learn how relational weaknesses, like defensiveness, passive-aggressive behavior, and poor communication, are quietly killing trust and morale on your team, even when everything looks like it’s running smoothly.
Whether you're leading a team or just trying to be a better teammate, this episode will help you see the true cause of disconnection, and what to do about it.
🧠 In this episode, you’ll learn:
- Why improving your tactical skills might not fix your team problems
- The difference between tactical and relational strengths and weaknesses
- Real-world relational weaknesses that silently destroy workplace culture
- What it really means to be defensive (and how to shift it)
- Why being approachable matters more than being available
- How to start showing up as a human-centered leader... today
