You also don't want to miss the discussion on resonant and dissonant leaders and the difference between psychological safety and trust. After listening to this conversation, you will walk away with many great tips on buffering against burnout, supporting others during difficult times, responding instead of reacting and how to have an intentional reading plan. Be sure to stay until the end for the best tip of all - how to secretly signal to a colleague that you need support.
