Creating a fear-free workplace

In Episode 54 of the Best Boss Ever podcast, Christine connects with Matt Stone, President & CEO at BehavioralOS®.  

Matt works with executives to improve both their performance and the performance of their teams through high-growth conversations. He reflects on an amazing boss he had at the Oregon Department of Justice–one who stood out to him immediately and is someone he still uses to this day as a model for exceptional leadership.

They talk about the impact of an always-authentic leader who had the ability to elevate vastly different types of personalities by creating a safe environment that allowed for shame-free communication and conflict resolution. They also dive into how the potential for success skyrockets when leaders demonstrate kindness, grace, and respect even in the most difficult moments.
