As a leader, I’ve learned one truth that changes everything: connection comes before correction. In this Positive Leadership Tip, I share why building trust and showing care is the foundation for real influence. When your team knows you’re for them—not against them—they’re more open to feedback and more likely to grow. If you want better engagement and long-term success, it starts with how you show up. I hope this encourages you to lead with connection today—and every day.
