Brilliant Jerks & The Power of Organizational Courage

from No Jerks Allowed: Real Talk on Leadership · host Stephanie Licata, M.A., A.C.C.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode, Stephanie Licata is joined by Angela Cheng-Cimini for a candid conversation about toxic leadership, the “brilliant jerk” problem, and the organizational courage it takes to address bad behavior at work. Together, they explore why high-performing but harmful leaders are so often tolerated, how fear and power dynamics keep people silent, and what HR, executives, and employees can do to build healthier cultures. Angela, CHRO of The Chronicle of Philanthropy and has served in senior HR leadership roles at Harvard Business Publishing and Crabtree & Evelyn, brings deep perspective on psychological safety, accountability, and knowing when it’s time to speak up, or move on.Host: Stephanie Licata, M.A. A.C.C. | Learning & Leadership Consultant Contact: [email protected] | Website https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephanie-licata-m-a-a-c-c-1ab8573/https://stephanielicata.com/Guest: Angela Cheng-Cimini | CHRO / Board Advisor / AAPI Champion / Keynote SpeakerLinkedIn
