When things go wrong, weak leaders point fingers. Strong leaders take responsibility.
In this episode, we get real about the toxic habit of finger pointing in leadership—and how it slowly destroys trust, morale, and accountability across teams and organizations.
We unpack: ✅ Why finger pointing feels easy—but always costs more in the long run ✅ How blame creates fear while ownership builds confidence and creativity ✅ The difference between accountability and scapegoating ✅ How to shift your culture from “Who’s at fault?” to “What can we learn?”
If your team is caught in a cycle of blame—or if you’ve ever worked for a leader who never owns their part—this episode will hit home.
