In this episode of ctrl-alt-LEAD, David Hinson explores the critical role of individual agency in fostering resilient, high-functioning teams. He challenges leaders to create professional environments where initiative is rewarded—not suppressed—and where team members are empowered to act, contribute, and grow.

Drawing from personal experience and practical observations, David unpacks how psychological safety, accountability, and the ability to say “no” are essential for both professional development and organizational success. He warns against the trap of passivity, the risks of delayed decision-making, and the dangers of stifling others’ growth by over-control.

The episode calls on leaders to shift from mere delegation to mentorship—encouraging a culture where agency is expected, supported, and celebrated.
