Give Grace or Drop the Hammer

In this episode of the Hollow Bunny Leadership Podcast, former police chiefs and hosts Kristen Ziman and Sylvia Moir explore the delicate leadership balance between extending grace through "charitable assumptions" and recognizing actual behavioral patterns when people fall short. Drawing on concepts like the fundamental attribution error and the three distinct dimensions of trust—ability, benevolence, and integrity—they discuss how leaders can guard against personal biases, ensure their words align with their daily actions, and navigate the tough choices that arise when competing professional and personal priorities collide.
