The previous episode showed how even good leaders can get trapped in cycles that drain their teams. Today we flip it. Drawing on research from MIT's Nelson Repenning and Harvard's Amy Edmondson, we explore what happens when you invest in your people instead of burning them out. The virtuous cycle isn't motivational theory—it's science. Capability builds slowly, but when it does, the work gets easier. Psychological safety, real recognition, and belonging create the conditions for teams to thrive. Discover the leverage points that matter most and why holding on through the dip is where transformation begins.
