Stephanie Russell-Jacobs is a former hairstylist turned psychological safety facilitator and coach. This is Stephanie's  third time on SUMM IT UP, and this episode we're focusing on leadership. Stephanie says just about anyone can be a leader, whether they know it or not, and that leadership is more about intention than power. In this insightful conversation, Stephanie and Blake discuss:

• The many forms leadership can take in a salon company
• Applying Mel Robbins' "Let Them" theory to the salon workplace
• Why leaders should aim for consistency, not perfection
• Strategies for managing conflict between salon company shareholders

And more.
