Episode 2: The Authenticity Upgrade


Listen Later

 This one dives into a topic that almost every professional wrestles with at some point: authentic leadership.

In this episode, Carlotta and I explore key ideas from The Authenticity Upgrade: Rebooting Leadership for Real Humans by Cristina Amigoni and Alex Cullimore. AND we were lucky enough to have Cristina join the discussion.

Together we talk about:

  • Why leaders need to work with human nature instead of against it

  • How internal stories and imposter syndrome shape confidence at work

  • The role of active listening and real communication in leadership

  • Where AI fits into modern work—and why human judgment still matters

  • The tension between authenticity, workplace culture, and leadership expectations

  • And how small, intentional habits can help leaders grow over time
