What changes need to be made for an organization to truly succeed with their AI strategy? In this four-part special series, we'll share conversations from the recent HBR Strategy Summit to help you get ahead. In this episode, Harvard Business School professor Tsedal Neeley shares what she's learned about successful AI implementation and organizational transformation, from the minimum technological capabilities needed to what it takes to overcome silos to how to transform workflows and processes to add real value. HBR editor in chief Amy Bernstein facilitates, bringing in audience questions.

Linda Hill, Jason Wild, and Emily C. Tedards join the show to discuss what it actually takes to build organizations that innovate consistently—not just once, but over and over again. Linda Hill is a Harvard Business School professor and one of the world's leading experts on leadership and innovation, ranked among the top management thinkers globally. Jason Wild brings the practitioner perspective, having led innovation initiatives at companies like Microsoft, Salesforce, and IBM. Emily C. Tedards is a graduate researcher in organizational behavior at Harvard Business School and a doctoral fellow at the Harvard Kennedy School. Together, they co-authored Genius at Scale, a book exploring how modern leaders create environments where innovation can thrive across teams, generations, and organizations. On this episode we talk about: Why many great ideas never get launched—and how leaders can change that The difference between leading change and leading innovation Why successful innovation requires co-creation instead of top-down leadership The power of “creative abrasion” and diverse perspectives in problem-solving How organizations can better integrate younger generations into leadership and innovation Top 3 Takeaways The best leaders don't simply drive innovation—they build environments where people collaborate to create innovation together. Innovation leadership is about co-creation, not followership. Teams are more engaged when they feel they're helping shape the future rather than executing someone else's vision. Diversity of thought—including generational diversity—is a powerful advantage when solving complex problems and navigating uncertainty. Notable Quotes "Great leaders drive innovation—but they don't drive alone." "If you want to innovate repeatedly at scale, you must create an environment where people can co-create the future together." "Innovation doesn't happen because one person has the answer—it happens when many people bring their perspectives to the problem."

Linda Hill: Genius at Scale Linda Hill is the Wallace Brett Donham Professor of Business Administration and Faculty Chair of the Leadership Initiative at Harvard Business School. Globally recognized as a top leadership and innovation expert, Linda has been named by Thinkers50 as one of the world's top five management thinkers. She is the co-author, along with Emily Tedards and Jason Wild, of Genius at Scale: How Great Leaders Drive Innovation (Amazon, Bookshop)* We all want to think of ourselves as innovative, but it's often not easy to know exactly what that means in practice. In this conversation, Linda and I explore what her research shows that leaders do to drive innovation successfully – and how each of us can get just a bit better. Key Points Rather than coming up with a vision and asking people to follow it, innovation is about creating the culture and capabilities to create the future together. Innovation leadership shows up in three ways within organizations: the Architects, the Bridge Builders, and the Catalysts. Instead of setting the stage for themselves, innovative leaders set the stage for others. Often, we view horizontal relationships through the lens of organizational politics. The most effective innovation leaders view these relationships as leadership opportunities. Traditional team structures are a starting point, but not an ending point. Leaders at Mastercard, Pfizer, and Cleveland Clinic all brought in team members from both inside and outside the organization. Rather than thinking about a decision as final, it's helpful for innovation leaders to frame it as a “working hypothesis.” Resources Mentioned Genius at Scale: How Great Leaders Drive Innovation by Linda Hill, Emily Tedards, and Jason Wild (Amazon, Bookshop)* Interview Notes Download my interview notes in PDF format (free membership required).

Have you ever made a promise to stick with something 100% only to cave at 98%? Clayton Christiansen, the famous Harvard Business School professor, taught that it's easier to hold your principles 100% of the time than 98% of the time—because at 98%, you're constantly debating whether “this time” is the exception. Abraham discovered this truth the hard way. God had called him to leave everything behind and follow Him to a new land, promising to bless him personally, nationally, and globally. Abraham packed up and obeyed, mostly. He took his nephew Lot when God said leave everyone, and when famine hit the Promised Land, he panicked and fled to Egypt without asking God. What started as faith turned into doubt, and doubt is simply forgetting God. Every time Abraham dropped from 100% trust to 98% trust, he made decisions that nearly cost him everything. It cost his integrity, his wife, and his witness. When doubt knocks at your door, let God answer. Discover three ways doubt attacks your faith, and how to let God answer every time. Understand how forgetting God happens in stages, so you can catch yourself before you lose your integrity, your peace, and your witness.

In 1519, Hernán Cortés landed in Mexico and promptly set fire to his own fleet. By any conventional measure of military logistics, this seems profoundly counterproductive. It wasn't. Matt Higgins — Shark Tank investor, Harvard Business School lecturer, and accidental dropout — has spent his career studying what happens when humans remove their own escape routes. Spoiler: it tends to go rather well, and there's solid science to explain why. A landmark Wharton study found that merely having a backup plan measurably reduces both your motivation and your likelihood of success. The safety net, it turns out, is cutting the tightrope.

“Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” — Matthew 6:21 Long before Scripture speaks about budgets, investments, or generosity, it asks a deeper question: What do we truly value? Jesus' words in Matthew 6:21 aren't merely financial advice. They reveal a profound spiritual reality. Our treasures—what we prioritize, pursue, and protect—reveal the direction of our hearts. Understanding this truth reshapes the way we think about money, wealth, and ultimately, life itself. Everyone Is Chasing a Treasure Step into any office, business, or marketplace, and you'll see it quickly: everyone is pursuing something. For some, the pursuit is wealth. For others, it's freedom, comfort, reputation, or security. When you peel it back, treasure shows up in the things we sacrifice for, dream about, and worry over. Money often sits at the center of this pursuit because it seems to promise everything we desire. If we have enough, we imagine we'll finally feel secure, prepared, and in control. But there's a paradox. The more we accumulate, the more we fear losing it. The more we protect it, the more anxious we become. What once promised freedom slowly begins to feel like slavery. The problem isn't that money is bad. Scripture never teaches that. Money is simply a tool. The problem is that our hearts quietly ask money to do what only God can do: save us, secure us, and satisfy us. That's why Jesus spoke about treasure so often. Not because He opposed wealth, but because wealth competes for what belongs to God alone—our trust. Generosity Reveals the Heart Many people assume the solution to the love of money is simply to give more. And generosity is certainly celebrated throughout Scripture. Giving frees us to participate in God's work and bless others. But Jesus never treated giving like a formula. Instead, He treated it like a diagnosis. In Mark 12:41–44, Jesus watched as wealthy donors placed large gifts into the temple treasury. It must have looked impressive to everyone watching. But His attention turned to a poor widow who quietly dropped in two small coins. To most observers, her gift seemed insignificant. But Jesus saw something different. The wealthy gave from their surplus. The widow gave from trust. Her offering wasn't about optics or recognition. It was worship. She treasured God more than financial security. When Giving Isn't Enough Jesus reinforced this idea when He rebuked the Pharisees in Matthew 23:23. They carefully tithed even their smallest herbs—mint, dill, and cumin—yet neglected “the weightier matters of the law: justice and mercy and faithfulness.” Their giving was meticulous. But their hearts were misplaced. If the act of giving alone could break the love of money, the Pharisees would have been the freest people in Israel. But they weren't. True freedom doesn't come from giving more. It comes from loving Christ most. The Treasure Worth Everything Jesus tells another story in Matthew 13:44 about a man who discovers a treasure hidden in a field. When he realizes what he has found, he joyfully sells everything he owns to buy the field. Notice what's remarkable about this story: the man isn't grieving his loss. He's thrilled. Why? Because he finally sees clearly what is truly valuable. He isn't losing—he's gaining. That's what happens when Christ becomes our treasure. Everything else falls into its proper place. Wealth becomes a tool instead of a master. Enjoyment becomes gratitude rather than entitlement. Generosity flows from joy instead of guilt. Stewardship becomes participation in God's work instead of anxiety about our own future. The Treasure That Came Looking for Us But the story of treasure doesn't end there. While humanity was searching for treasure, the greatest treasure came searching for us. Jesus didn't simply teach about treasure—He became the treasure who gave everything to redeem us. Hebrews 12:2 tells us that Christ endured the cross “for the joy that was set before him.” That joy was redeeming us. The gospel isn't ultimately a call to give up treasure. It's an invitation to receive a greater one. The Question That Matters Most The real question isn't whether you treasure something. You do. The question is who. Earthly treasures always demand protection. Christ alone protects us. And when Christ becomes our treasure, we gain something the world can never provide: a confidence no market can shake and a wealth no thief can steal. So today, pause and ask yourself the question Jesus raised long ago: Where is your treasure? Because wherever it is, that's where your heart will be also. On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions: I started a construction business about a year and a half ago, and it's growing. How can I pursue growth faithfully without crossing the line from building wealth to pursuing greed? I'm overwhelmed by high-interest loans and paying $1,200–$1,500 every two weeks. Trinity Debt Management may be able to help, but the lenders won't negotiate. What's the best way to get out from under these loans? My husband normally manages our finances, but after his recent injury, I realized how unprepared I'd be to handle things on my own. With everything online—bills, investments, and passwords—how can I start getting organized and up to speed?

Your nervous system learned danger. It can learn safety too. In this episode, Peter Fenger sits down with Nora Rodden, CEO and co-founder of Nervana, a science-based mobile app helping people regulate their nervous systems and reclaim their lives from chronic pain. After a life-altering car accident left her suffering from chronic pain, GI issues, and insomnia for over five years, Nora didn't find relief through injections, surgery, or nerve ablation. She found it through neuroscience. A clinical trial at Harvard Business School introduced her to the power of mind-body therapy, and effectively rewired her brain's alarm system. Now, drawing on her background in biotech and her training as a certified yoga teacher, she's on a mission to bring these evidence-based neuroplasticity tools out of the research lab and into the hands of millions. In this conversation, Nora takes us inside her recovery, the science behind chronic pain, and how Nervana is helping users move from a chronic state of fight-or-flight back to one of lasting internal safety, one small, powerful experiment at a time.   For more information about Nervana, please visit: https://www.trynervana.com To download Nervana from the Apple App store, please visit: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/nervana-chronic-symptom-coach/id6754898332 Listeners can save $50 on their subscription with BHT50.

In this short, actionable episode, Ray Sclafani challenges leaders with a powerful question: If the last 90 days of your calendar were published on the front page of the Wall Street Journal, would you be proud of how you invested your time?Ray shares a simple but revealing leadership exercise, a calendar audit, inspired by research from Harvard Business School on how CEOs manage their time. By reviewing the last 90 days of your calendar and categorizing activities as green, yellow, or red, leaders can quickly see where they are creating value, where they should delegate, and what should be eliminated entirely.Because in leadership, success isn't determined by how busy you are, it's determined by where you invest your time.Key TakeawaysLeaders often say what matters most to them, but their calendar shows what they actually prioritize. Review the last 90 days of your calendar and evaluate whether your time reflects your highest leadership priorities.A simple leadership exercise is to analyze your schedule regularly to understand where your time is going. Pull up your calendar for the past 90 days and categorize every activity using the Red, Yellow, Green framework.Identify one responsibility you can transition to another team member to help develop leadership within the organization.What leaders spend time on communicates what matters most within the organization.Everyone operates within the same 168 hours each week, making intentional allocation critical. Before accepting new commitments, ask: Does this align with my highest priorities as a leader?Questions Financial Advisors Often AskQ: What is the most important leadership time management exercise mentioned in the episode?A: The episode recommends conducting a calendar audit of the last 90 days. Leaders review their calendar and categorize activities into green, yellow, or red to evaluate how effectively they are investing their time.Q: What does the red, yellow, green calendar exercise mean?A: The exercise categorizes leadership activities based on their value. Green activities represent the best use of a leader's time, such as meetings with top clients, developing future leaders, strategic thinking, recruiting talent, and planning firm growth. Yellow activities are useful but could eventually be transitioned to others in the organization. Red activities are tasks that should be delegated, eliminated, or automated.Q: Why is a leader's calendar important for business success?A: A leader's calendar reveals what they actually prioritize. The episode explains that what gets time gets attention, and what gets attention gets results, meaning the way leaders allocate their time directly impacts organizational outcomes.Q: Why should leaders think of time as an investment?A: The episode explains that leaders often say they “spend” time, but investing time implies a return. Effective leaders treat time like capital and focus on ensuring every hour contributes value to the firm's future.Q: How can delegating tasks improve leadership capacity?A: Delegating tasks allows leaders to focus on strategic priorities while giving others the opportunity to step into new responsibilities. Leadership capacity grows when leaders intentionally step down from tasks so others can step up.Find Ray and the ClientWise Team on the ClientWise website or LinkedIn | Twitter | Instagram | Facebook | YouTubeTo join one of the largest digital communities of financial advisors, visit exchange.clientwise.com.

IN THIS EPISODE: Every organization begins by serving customers. Not all of them get it right — or keep it that way. So where does the customer  relationship break down? In this episode, Denise Silber speaks with HBS MBA Caroline Evans de Gantes, a transformation leader who has spent more than two decades helping companies design strategy, culture, and operations around customer love as an organizing principle. Caroline recalls arriving at Harvard Business School in 2008 just as the Lehman Brothers collapse unfolded — an experience that shaped her leadership perspective: progress comes from experimentation, learning quickly, and working closely with frontline teams. Drawing on transformations across industries known for difficult customer relationships, she shares what it takes to reconnect organizations with the people they serve. From mobile phone insurance and broadband installation to the transformation of leading real-estate marketplace SeLoger within the Aviv Group, the conversation explores how leadership culture, incentives, and technology can be realigned around customers — and how doing so improves business performance. Throughout the discussion, Caroline shows that making customer love an organizing principle starts on Day 1. GUEST BIO: Caroline Evans de Gantès, a 2010 MBA graduate of the Harvard Business School, has over 20 years experience transforming offline industries by placing the client front and center. From insurance to telecommunications  to real estate, Caroline has deployed this approach to transform culture, product, and strategy, and turn profits around. Most recently, Caroline led a transformation at SeLoger (a 30 year old French real estate marketplace) to 2X the growth rate and a great NPS (Net Promoter Score), through redesigning culture, organisation, and business model. She merged SeLoger, and other real estate companies in France, launched new services to take back market share from rivals and championed a customer-centric culture in France, Belgium, and Germany. The resulting business, Aviv, is the leading European real estate marketplace with 50M monthly active users.  Caroline is originally from the State of Mississippi and has fashioned a career as the bridge between people and technology and the US and Europe.

Since coming to Washington, DC in April 2025, Congressman Randy Fine has risen to become one of the most highly effective communicators on Capitol Hill, clearly articulating the importance of implementing principled reforms and boldly addressing challenges and opportunities we face in America today. His messages remind us of President Ronald Reagan's smart responses, explaining in a simple language what we are facing as Americans, and presenting the unvarnished truth. Topics: — US and Israel airstikes against Iran's regime : A timeline of Iranian terrorist attacks and threats leading to America's just intervention. — Certain mosques on American soil mourning the death of the head of State Sponsor of Terrorism Iran's Ayatollah Khamenei. — Congressman Fine's message to Europe and NATO members. — The Impact of U.S. economic reforms. Bio: Randy Fine was elected to represent Florida's 6th Congressional District in April of 2025 and serves on the House Foreign Affairs and the Education and Workforce Committee. A third-generation Floridian, Randy built a career as a successful entrepreneur, founding and running businesses in retail, technology, and hospitality. Randy's retirement didn't last long. In 2016, he was elected to the Florida House, where he served the maximum eight years before moving on to the Florida Senate and then Congress. During his time in Tallahassee, he chaired five committees, passed more than forty bills, and became known as a strong advocate for school choice, tough immigration enforcement, and protecting children from harmful ideologies. As the only Jewish Republican in the Florida Legislature, Randy led the fight to make Florida the safest state in America for Jewish families and people of faith. His colleagues and national Jewish organizations honored him with the nickname “The Hebrew Hammer” for his work opposing terrorism and combatting antisemitism. The son of two public school teachers, Randy graduated magna cum laude from Harvard College with a degree in government and later earned his MBA from Harvard Business School, where he graduated with high distinction as one of the youngest Baker Scholars in decades.

Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova.  This week, I'm really excited to have Dr. Linda Hill back on the show. She's a top-ranked thinker on Thinker's 50 List and the Wallace Brett Donnan Professor of Business Administration at Harvard Business School. Linda doesn't just study leadership; she studies the chemistry of how humans actually get big things done together. She's the co-author of the management Bible, as I like to say, Collective Genius, and the viral HBR hit, Why Great Innovations Fail to Scale. She has a new book coming out called Genius at Scale.  THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR…leaders who want to build organizations where innovation isn't left to chance but is built into how people work together every day. TODAY'S MAIN MESSAGE…innovation doesn't happen because you hire a few creative people or run a brainstorming session. According to Linda, real innovation results from disciplined leadership and intentional culture-building. In this conversation, Linda shares what leaders often get wrong about creativity, how to foster productive disagreement without chaos, and why collaboration, experimentation, and learning must be embedded into the system.  Key Takeaways: Innovation requires disciplined leadership, not just creative talent or good ideas. Collective genius emerges when leaders cultivate both safety and accountability. Productive conflict strengthens ideas when it is structured and purposeful. Experimentation must be normalized to enable continuous learning. Culture determines whether innovation thrives or stalls. WHAT I LOVE MOST…I love Linda's perspective that innovation is not about having all the answers as a leader, it's about building the conditions where great answers can emerge from the group. This shifts the role of leadership from being the smartest person in the room to being the architect of the environment where smart thinking can happen.

A growing body of research shows we vastly underestimate the value of sharing more than we think we should, with our spouses, friends, colleagues, and even strangers. Drawing on over a decade of research and real-life stories, behavioral scientist Leslie John explores why we hesitate to open up, when sharing really does backfire, and how to strike a balance between too much and too little.Leslie John is the James Burke Professor of Business Administration at the Harvard Business School. Her new book is: ‘Revealing: The Underrated Power of Oversharing.'

Private equity is flooding into accounting, but taking an offer because of the flashy number on the table isn't always the best decision.In this crossover episode with the Inside Public Accounting Podcast, Brannon Poe joins host Rob Brown to break down what's really happening in CPA firm M&A right now. After attending a private equity conference at Harvard Business School, Brannon shares why this may be the most exciting—and chaotic—era he's seen since entering the M&A space in 2003.Accounting firms check every box private equity investors love: recurring revenue, fragmented ownership, under-optimized systems, and opportunity for scale. But while the market is strong and options are abundant, the real risk isn't missing out—it's moving too fast. Headline offers can be enticing, yet the fine print, cultural fit, leadership alignment, and long-term vision ultimately determine whether a deal becomes a win or a regret.*In this episode, we cover:*- Why private equity is so aggressively targeting CPA firms right now- The danger of the “headline offer” and how earnouts can change the real math- Why selling your firm is rarely just a financial decision- How to think about opportunity cost and the value of your time- What buyers actually want today (and why owner dependency kills value)- The critical $2.5M–$5M growth stretch and why it's so hard to scale there- When acquisition creates “escape velocity” for smaller firms- Why burnout might be telling you: “fix the firm,” not “sell the firm”- The power of pruning your client base and focusing instead of being everything to everyone- Why boundaries around time, pricing, and services are strategic rather than restrictiveThe M&A market may be active, but urgency is not a strategy. Whether you're considering a sale, exploring private equity, or simply trying to build a stronger, more valuable firm, this conversation offers clarity in a noisy environment. In a consolidating profession, the firms that win won't be the ones chasing the biggest multiple—they'll be the ones making disciplined decisions about timing, focus, and fit.Download Now: https://poegroupadvisors.com/accounting-practice-academy/increase-letter/Price increases are nothing to fear.

Marriage has evolved a lot through the years – and so have the problems and rewards that come with it. Research suggests it benefits our physical and mental health, but it might not seem like it when conflict arises and couples struggle to co-manage a household. With greater social acceptance of a variety of lifestyle choices, many people – especially young women – are thinking twice before tying the knot. In this episode, host Samantha Laine Perfas talks with business professor Debora Spar, psychiatrist and family counselor Richard Schwartz, and bestselling author Eve Rodsky about the role of marriage in modern society.

What does courage really look like in leadership?Often, we associate courage with bold gestures, fearless leaders, or decisive moments where doubt disappears.My guest in this conversation is Professor Ranjay Gulati of Harvard Business School, who challenges that assumption through his research into what he calls the surprising science of everyday courage, and shows why fear is not a flaw in leadership but a starting point.We explore why courage is a decision rather than a personality trait, how leaders can resource themselves when uncertainty rises, and the difference between thoughtful courage and reckless action. Ranjay shares stories from his research and personal experience that reveal how narrative, support squads, rituals and process help individuals and organisations act boldly with purpose.If you're facing decisions that feel uncomfortable this episode will help you build courage deliberately and use it as a practical leadership skill.“Fear is a reaction; courage is a decision” – Ranjay GulatiYou'll hear aboutWhy courage is a decision, not a traitHow fear shows up in leadership decisionsCourage versus recklessnessIndividual courage versus collective courageThe power of personal narrativeHow leaders resource themselvesSupport squads and courageous leadershipWhy courage is a team sportRituals that help manage fearBuilding courage as a muscleCommon leadership blind spots around courage About Ranjay Gulati:Ranjay Gulati is a Professor of Business Administration at Harvard Business School.  His pioneering work focuses on unlocking organizational and individual potential—embracing courage, nurturing purpose-driven leaders, driving growth, and transforming businesses.

The ability of an organization to innovate over and over again, for the long term, depends on leadership structure, culture, and systems. That's according to Harvard Business School professor Linda Hill, who has spent years researching the true drivers of innovation, taking lessons from the world's most successful companies. She explains why today's leaders need to shift from the focus on decision-making and producing to creating the conditions for collaboration, experimentation, and smart decision-making across teams, silos, and wider ecosystems. She shares examples from Mastercard, Pixar, and more and outlines some newly defined ways of looking at leadership roles: as Architects, Bridgers, and Catalysts. Hill's new book is Genius at Scale: How Great Leaders Drive Innovation.

In this episode of Behind The Numbers With Dave Bookbinder, Dave is joined by advisor and author Kris Kluver for a conversation on why leadership - not structures, not strategies, not spreadsheets - is the real driver of long-term value creation and generational wealth preservation. They dig into the coming great wealth transfer and the uncomfortable reality that roughly 70% of family fortunes fail to survive the second generation. Kris explains how breakdowns in communication, culture, and leadership - not financial planning - are usually to blame. Dave and Kris explore how families and organizations can prepare next-generation leaders, set audacious goals (BHAGs and 100x thinking), and build accountability systems that actually work. The discussion also touches on disruptive leadership, EOS-style scorecards, and why protecting and developing human capital is even more critical in an AI-driven world. Key takeaways include the importance of clear narratives of success, simplified metrics that drive accountability, intentional leadership development, and the willingness to embrace discomfort in pursuit of meaningful growth. The message is clear: leadership is not a soft skill - it's the most valuable asset an organization has. About Our Guest: Kris Kluver is a highly experienced operator, investor, and advisor who has worked with over 100 CEOs and helped organizations achieve billions in valuation. He has over three decades of experience across diverse industries, from publicly traded companies to high growth startups. Kluver has studied entrepreneurial strategy at Harvard Business School, is a certified exit advisor, a fellow at York University in the UK, and author of two bestselling books. About the Host: Dave Bookbinder is known as an expert in business valuation and he is the person that business owners and entrepreneurs reach out to when they need to know what their most important assets are worth. Known as a collaborative adviser, Dave has served thousands of client companies of all sizes and industries.    Dave is the author of two #1 best-selling books about the impact of human capital (PEOPLE!) on the valuation of a business enterprise called The NEW ROI: Return On Individuals & The NEW ROI: Going Behind The Numbers.    He's on a mission to change the conversation about how the accounting world recognizes the value of people's contributions to a business enterprise, and to quantify what every CEO on the planet claims: “Our people are this company's most valuable asset.” Dave's book, A Valuation Toolbox for Business Owners and Their Advisors: Things Every Business Owner Should Know, was recognized as a top new release in Business and Valuation and is designed to provide practical insights and tools to help understand what really drives business value, how to prepare for an exit, and just make better decisions.

Ever feel embarrassed about oversharing at a cocktail party? Turns out, you might've been on the right track. Leslie John, James E. Burke Professor of Business Administration at the Harvard Business School, joins host Krys Boyd to discuss why sharing our feelings garners trust, why we're so often reluctant to let people into our lives, and why there is a cost to undersharing. Her book is “Revealing: The Underrated Power of Oversharing.” Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices

Oversharing has a bad reputation. But what if revealing more about yourself is actually the fastest way to build trust? To give us insight into the psychology behind oversharing — when it builds connection and when it backfires — we're joined by behavioral scientist and author of Revealing: The Underrated Power of Oversharing, Leslie John.Leslie guides us through the surprising benefits of self-disclosure, exploring how revealing personal information can strengthen social bonds and increase trust. She also shares research on how disclosure impacts relationships, workplace dynamics, and even physiological stress, and explains how to find the “Goldilocks zone” where sharing is just right, without overburdening others.Listen and Learn: How sharing something a little uncomfortable can instantly build trust and make people like and choose you even more than someone who keeps everything privateWhy the instant regret after saying something vulnerable makes us play it safe, while the real price of not opening up shows up later in missed connection we never even realize we lostHow sharing just a little more than usual in conversations can create connection and prompt others to open up with youAsking deeper, slightly risky questions to turn awkward small talk into real connection and reveal surprising ways people bondRecognizing when sharing with a friend is helping or hurting your relationship and the surprising way your closest friendships reveal your emotional limitsHow sharing small vulnerabilities at work can actually boost trust and credibility without crossing professional boundariesHow encouraging young kids to show their feelings now could help them handle stress later and navigate tricky social pressures as they growSharing personal stories to light up your brain's pleasure centers, and why that might be more rewarding than you thinkResources: Revealing: The Underrated Power of Oversharing https://bookshop.org/a/30734/9780593545386 Leslie's Website: https://www.lesliekjohn.comConnect with Leslie on Social Media:https://www.linkedin.com/in/leslie-john-75928721 https://www.instagram.com/proflesliejohn/ https://x.com/lesliekjohn?lang=en About Leslie JohnLeslie John is the James E.

Let's talk about the thing you replay over and over in your mind at 2 a.m. The comment in the meeting. The story you shared. The truth that felt a little too honest. Welcome to the oversharing hangover. We've been taught that credibility requires polish and power lives in restraint. Keep it tight. Keep it tidy. Keep the messy parts to yourself. But what if that's wrong? In this episode, Nicole sits down with Leslie John, Harvard Business School professor and author of Revealing: The Underrated Power of Oversharing, to unpack what the research actually says about vulnerability, trust, and credibility — and why saying less might be costing you more than you think. In This Episode, We Explore: Why oversharing can build trust The difference between thoughtful revealing and emotional dumping How admitting mistakes can increase credibility at work The “Goldilocks rule” of vulnerability How to weigh the cost of revealing vs. staying silent The research is clear: we consistently trust people who reveal something real more than those who stay guarded. And thoughtful vulnerability doesn't weaken your credibility — it strengthens it Thank you to our sponsors! Sex is a skill. Beducated is where you learn it.

We've been conditioned to believe that saying less is safer. But playing it safe costs trust, influence, stronger negotiations, and deeper relationships because the line between “too much” and meaningful connection is further out than we think. In the latest episode of Habits & Hustle, I'm joined by author Leslie John to break down the exact tipping point where leader vulnerability backfires, why holding your cards close in negotiation weakens your leverage, and how pushing slightly past your comfort zone builds real authority.

Harvard Business School professor Leslie John joins AJ and Johnny to unpack why we systematically get vulnerability wrong. We obsess over the risks of sharing and ignore the cost of staying silent. From dating profiles and first impressions to leadership, feedback, and negotiation, Leslie explains how to decide what to reveal, when to reveal it, and how to frame it so it builds trust instead of regret. If you've ever worried about TMI — or held back and felt distance grow — this episode gives you a smarter way to think about disclosure.

Phil Gilbert: Irresistible Change Phil Gilbert is best known for leading IBM’s 21st-century transformation as their General Manager of Design. The transformation became the subject of a Harvard Business School case study, the documentary film The Loop, and feature articles in the New York Times and Fortune Magazine. He is the author of Irresistible Change: A Blueprint for Earning Buy-In and Breakout Success (Amazon, Bookshop)*. We've all been through mandated change initiatives more times than we can count. But what if change wasn't a mandate, but an offer – or even an invitation? In this conversation, Phil and I explore how to make change irresistible. Key Points Change should be regarded as a high-value-add product. Don't mandate change. Offer change. Your goal is sustained cultural adoption, not improving immediate competency. Start small, but cover all your bases on a reduced scale. Make a great cupcake instead of a mediocre wedding cake. People buy brands, not products. Branding change allows you to define the values and message that goes with it.
