Say What You Mean: Stop Quiet Resentment Before It Spreads
from Leap Lady Leader Podcast · host Maureen Metcalf
In this “Leap Series” episode Mo explores how leaders' avoidance — using blanket policies to avoid being seen as unfair — undermines culture and creates quiet resentment. She explains that perceived fairness depends on transparent reasoning, not identical outcomes, and introduces the LEAP model (Lead, Empower, Align, Persevere) to restore trust. Listeners receive practical guidance on giving clear explanations for differentiated expectations, inviting questions instead of compliance, and staying present through discomfort so high performers aren’t driven away by ambiguity.
