Leading with Kindness: The New Strategy for Team Retention with Michael G. Neece

Your team isn’t underperforming—they’re quietly quitting
with Micheal G. Neece

No, not the TikTok trend. We’re talking about your brilliant people—the ones with ideas that could transform your business—but instead of speaking up, they’re silently checking out. Not because of money. Not because of workload. But because of a broken culture that’s invisible… until it’s expensive.

In this episode of Experience Leadership: The Small Business Podcast, Marc sits down with Michael G. Neece—culture strategist, keynote speaker, and kindness-in-leadership expert—to unpack how disengagement, silence, and fear of speaking up are bleeding value from your business.

We cover:

✅ The hidden signs of a fragile, failing culture

✅ How to create psychological safety without HR overhauls

✅ Why kindness is the new ROI

✅ The single question you should ask your team today (if you’re brave)

If you’ve ever felt like your team knows what’s wrong but no one’s talking about it… this episode is for you.
