The Price Of Nice: Edelman EVP And Author, Amira Barger On Courage, Communication, And Redefining Strength

from Women Advancing

In The Price of Nice, Amira Barger—author and Executive Vice President at Edelman—reveals why courage, not compliance, defines true leadership. Through stories that blend honesty with heart, she challenges the cultural myth that being agreeable equals being kind, showing how “nice” can come at the expense of truth and progress. In this powerful conversation with Kate Byrne, Amira explores the three languages of communication, the myth of harmony in teams, and what it really means to practice nerve as a daily act of integrity.Socials:LinkedIn – https://www.linkedin.com/in/amirabargerYouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@amirabargerInstagram – https://www.instagram.com/amirabargerTikTok – https://www.tiktok.com/@amirabargerBluesky – https://bsky.app/profile/amirabarger.bsky.socialLove the show? Subscribe, rate, review, and share!
