About This Episode

Dr. Debra Clary shares how her bold journey reveals the transformative power of curiosity in leadership. Drawing on decades of experience at Fortune 50 companies and her own original research, she explores how a lack of curiosity, especially among leaders, undermines engagement and retention, while surprising data shows workers in their 50s and 60s often possess the highest levels of curiosity. Through her four-part curiosity assessment, Debra helps leaders measure and cultivate exploration, openness, focused engagement, and mindful awareness. With practical tools and insights, she challenges leaders to slow down, ask better questions, and connect more deeply, reminding us that curiosity is not about being fearless, but choosing to move forward even when afraid.
