In the introduction, Steve and Jeremie discuss the Russian Invasion in Ukraine and what kind of leaders Putin and Zelensky are showing themselves to be. Jeremie says the leadership lesson from Putin is the impact of paranoia. Jeremie, "When you use domination and fear and manipulation it only produces 'yes men' around you."

Steve's take on Putin, "You have to, as a leader, create a culture where you hear all the voices and you don't 'shoot' them when you don't like what they say." Steve adds that we may not be like Putin, but we have to ask ourselves, "Do I really hear the wisdom of all the people around me before I make decisions?"
