What separates good leaders from truly great ones? The answer often lies in psychological safety—the foundation of high-performing, innovative teams.

He discusses why empowerment, trust, and communication are essential for building a collaborative culture and how leaders can create long-term impact for future generations."Confidence without humility is a problem." ~ Fahd AlhattabKey takeaways:Building High-Performing Teams – Strong teams thrive on psychological safety, effective communication, and shared purpose. Founders must foster trust and encourage open dialogue to enable growth and learning.Leadership as Leverage – Great leaders identify critical leverage points that drive success or failure. Delegation isn't about letting go entirely—it's about focusing on strengths while empowering teams to take ownership.Overcoming Common Pitfalls – Ego, lack of systems, and resistance to change can hinder leadership. Successful founders embrace adaptability, develop scalable systems, and encourage exploration in their businesses.Empowering Teams for Growth – Leadership isn't about control; it's about creating an environment where teams can take risks, make decisions, and evolve.

I am upping the ante on REAL conversations as I sit down with my close friends, Jill Osur and Lisa Orrell.  Jill and Lisa's not-so-random meeting led to a partnership that's as dynamic as it is loving. Their relationship teaches and challenges me and our open-hearted talks underscore the power of honest friendships - the kind in which we can show up authentically while paving the way to a more equitable world.We unpack my once narrow, and sadly, homophobic perspective and how it has expanded in large part due to conversations with LGBTQ+ friends and loved ones. This conversation offers further proof that our lived experience and personal story can change minds when we share our truest selves with others. I also love our discussion on the gift of Gen Z - the next wave of  humans who are pretty perplexed by older generations' use of societal labels and our tendency toward categorizing human souls. Guests Bios:Jill's Bio:A former UC Berkeley softball player, Jill Osur still draws on her athletic background to hone her leadership style and overcome obstacles.

Teneral Cellars is driven by Jill's belief that wine can be a conduit for change; a force for gender equity and social justice within the wine industry and our culture at large.  Teneral Cellars was named “Hot Brands of 2022” by Wine Business Monthly.Jill is a captivating public speaker who helps female executives and entrepreneurs learn how to strengthen their leadership by tapping into the “head, heart, and gut.” As said by one attendee, Jill “puts a firecracker in the room” with her energizing, moving presence.

Megan also shared what financial management looks like for her, how she came to understand the true cost of things like time and efficiency, and why it's important to have a strong financial foundation. This is a great episode for nonprofit leaders looking to use the relationships they have with the community to diversify their revenue streams.    About Megan Megan is the co-founder of The Foundry.

It's justification that the skills that they're learning can actually give you money.”   Resources The Foundry Website: https://www.thefoundrybuffalo.org/donate  Follow the Foundry on Instagram: @thefoundrybuffalo Keep up to date with the podcast: @100degreesconsulting Follow Stephanie on Instagram: @stephanie.skry/  Connect with Stephanie on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephanieskryzowski/  Visit the podcast page: https://100degreesconsulting.com/strong-community-relationships      Want more of the podcast?

I’ve gone back and forth with myself over the last year or so about using the term leadership when it comes to you doing what you need to do to grow your business, because it’s not a term that immediately lands for solopreneurs and micro-business owners and I totally get why. I didn’t think in terms of entrepreneurial leadership when I started my first business in the online space in 2016, nor this business, even though this one has always been about the growth of the business owner as the foundation for the growth of the business. Leadership is a term we tend to associate with the Corporate world, with managing teams or having employees However, it’s a term I’m going to stick with because When you start a business, you take on an entrepreneurial leadership role Even as a Solo or Micro-preneur.
