What if navigating constant change isn't about moving faster, but noticing who's stuck at the edge of the bridge? In this episode, we sit down with Suzanne Sitrin, a leadership consultant who's spent decades helping leaders guide teams through transformation: from the quality-management era to today's rapid growth and perpetual pivots. Suzanne shares what actually helps when the bar keeps moving and people are running out of runway. The Big Questions We Tackle: How do you lead when the goalposts keep moving? Suzanne unpacks what she's seeing in so many corporate environments: innovation at the top can translate into exhaustion at the bottom—especially when teams hit a milestone and immediately learn it "doesn't count" anymore. What does psychological safety really require? We talk about trust, vulnerability, and how leaders create the conditions for productive disagreement (without it turning personal). How do you lead across generations without generalizing? Suzanne shares what's changing in expectations at work—and why leaders need both clarity and flexibility: feedback and autonomy. The Hard Truths Not every team (or leader) is ready. Suzanne shares what happens when there isn't true willingness to do the work, and why "growth mindset" can't be lip service if transformation is the goal. What You Can Do Right Now Stop assuming. Curiosity beats projection, especially in ambiguity. Ask more, tell less. You can name hard things if you do it with care and clarity. Celebrate before you raise the bar. Recognition affirms effort, and strengthens future performance. Build emotional intelligence on purpose. Your leadership doesn't end at 5pm; people take it home with them.
