Andy Stanley

If you want better ideas, healthier teams, and stronger relationships at work and at home, this episode will help you make psychological safety a leadership value. Andy and Suzy go deeper into last week’s conversation with Charles Duhigg about psychological safety. They explore why leaders are responsible for creating safe environments, how vulnerability invites vulnerability, and why curiosity—not correction—should lead difficult conversations.
