Drawing from his Quality Progress article, “Are You Hiding Your Leadership?”, Stephen explores the mindset shifts that turn quality practitioners into trusted organizational influencers — from mastering persuasion and credibility to speaking the language of business.

Tune in to learn practical steps for building moral courage, trust, and impact as a quality leader.
