"People want to know that you care first before they want to know what you know." I'll never forget the day when I truly understood the power of vulnerability and authenticity as a leader. I was hosting my World at Work podcast, and my daughters were playing in the adjacent room. Their lively chatter and giggles could be heard in the background.
