What if the secret to transforming workplace culture is simply refusing to tolerate bad leadership?

Rosie sits down with Eric Harkins, leadership consultant, keynote speaker, and author of "Great Leaders Make Sure Monday Mornings Don't Suck." With over 25 years of experience reshaping how leaders lead, Eric shares the two critical things that keep organizations from being great, and what to do about them. Together, they unpack why underperformance and toxic leadership persist, even in companies striving for people-first cultures.

From the importance of courageous conversations to building a leadership model rooted in self-awareness, Eric lays out his practical LEAD framework to create workplaces people actually want to show up for. If you've ever rolled your eyes on a Monday morning or felt stuck working with someone who drains your energy, this episode is your call to action.

Get ready to laugh, learn, and rethink what it really means to show up as a leader.
