In this thought-provoking episode, HR expert Lalita Dixit joins Majeed to flip the script on leadership. With 29 years in the corporate world and experience reporting to 21 different managers, Lalita brings a rare perspective: that of the employee.

She’s not a manager, but she’s seen leadership done brilliantly—and disastrously. Drawing from her upcoming book "I'm Not a Leader", Lalita shares what every organization needs to know about cultivating real leadership, preventing burnout, and elevating employee experience from the ground up.

Key Takeaways:

• A fresh approach to evaluating leaders: empathy, trust, and people-first thinking

• Lalita’s HR philosophy in three powerful words: Leaders Make Leaders
