In this episode, we're getting awkward with Henna Pryor!
We talk about her book Good Awkward, what it is and embracing awkwardness in leadership, using improv exercises with your team to build trust and encourage open communication, the power of telling ourselves redemption stories in place of contamination stories, and so much more.
You'll really enjoy the awkward moment in the middle of the podcast where we try to figure out where the bubbles on screen are coming from - you really never know when you'll experience those quirks and unexpected moments.
