Ever walked into a meeting where the outcome was already decided... before anyone spoke?
❌ No questions asked.
❌ No new ideas explored.
❌ Just assumptions, certainty, and missed opportunities.
That's what happens when curiosity is missing from leadership.
Without it, we fall into:
🔹 Snap judgments
🔹 One-size-fits-all decisions
🔹 A culture where people hold back instead of speaking up
But when leaders lead with curiosity, everything changes. 🌱
🎙️ In this episode of Shine Your Light, we dive into the power of curiosity in leadership with Kelly Gregoire and why it's not just a soft skill, but a strategic advantage.

Have you ever experienced the subtle erosion of trust in a team or relationship?

It often begins unnoticed—small promises left unfulfilled, feedback ignored, or transparency compromised. Over time, these seemingly minor actions create an environment where people hesitate to speak up, collaboration diminishes, and innovation stalls. The weight of distrust can be heavy, leaving individuals feeling isolated, uncertain, and disengaged.

In this episode, we dive deep with Amy Xinmei Lin, into why trust is the foundation of effective leadership and how leading with integrity is key to building and maintaining it.
