When Leaders Say One Thing and Do Another: The Credibility Crisis

Ever worked for a manager who preaches calm, collaboration, and self-care—but then loses their temper, burns out, and makes decisions alone? You’re not alone.

Join Paul, Ant, Sally, and Dan as they operate on the classic leadership dilemma of “do as I say, not as I do.” In this episode, they diagnose the impact of leaders whose actions contradict their words, exploring:

  • The confusion and frustration this creates for teams.
  • Why self-awareness is critical for leaders (and how to build it).
  • Practical steps for having courageous conversations with your boss.
  • How to prevent resentment and keep your own leadership on track.
