How transparent is your leadership team about company information?

In an age where transparency can make or break trust, many leaders still wrestle with pulling back the curtain, especially when it comes to sharing sensitive company details such as finances. But what if withholding information is more perilous than sharing it?

Axonify’s CEO, Carol Leaman, delves into why she views the repercussions of not sharing this information as a greater threat. She offers actionable strategies to promote transparency and over-communication across all areas of a company and provides insights on how to motivate your employees.

Carol Leaman is an award-winning thought leader with an impressive track record of successfully leading tech companies. Before becoming the CEO and Co-Founder of Axonify, she served as the CEO of PostRank Inc. (acquired by Google) and held CEO positions at tech firms RSS Solutions and Fakespace Systems.

In episode #162, Carol discusses her experiences with boomerang employees, creating value for employees, motivating teams, and the decision-making process of hiring internally versus externally for roles.

Tune in to learn more about Carol’s leadership journey and the invaluable lessons she's gathered along the way!
