You’ve invested in training. People left energized. And then… nothing changes.

In this episode of No Jerks Allowed—Why Leadership and Team Development Doesn’t Stick—Stephanie Licata and guests Kristin Chase, and Blake Cason (more on the host & guests below!) unpack why even great programs fade fast when development is treated like a one-time event instead of a reinforced system. They cover the impact of burnout, unclear expectations, lack of leader modeling, and missing follow-through - and share practical ways to connect learning to real work so new behaviors actually stick.

Perfect for HR/talent/learning leaders, managers and fractional people practitioners who are done with “checkbox training” and want lasting culture and performance change.

What do people actually remember about great leaders? Hint: it’s not tools, titles, or technical brilliance. In this first episode of No Jerks Allowed: Real Talk on Leadership, Stephanie Licata, M.A., A.C.C. breaks down why leadership is so often over-engineered,  and why behavior matters more than frameworks. 

Drawing from years of training middle managers and emerging leaders, she explores what truly defines great leadership, why coaching skills stick, and how organizations fall into the trap of solving leadership problems with one-off solutions. If you’re a People or Talent leader, a coach or consultant, or someone tired of watching the same leadership mistakes repeat themselves, this episode sets the foundation for doing leadership differently.
