Whether you are a first-time manager feeling overwhelmed, a founder who never signed up for “management,” or a seasoned leader ready to break old habits, each Tuesday episode delivers tactical playbooks you can use the same day.No more guessing. No more stress. Just clear, proven strategies that help you lead with confidence. About the Host: Lia Garvin is a 3x bestselling author, TEDx speaker, and team management consultant.
