About this epsiode:
What if the toughest problems in your business aren't really about people at all—but about process? And what if the missing ingredient in leadership today is learning how to hold people accountable with both clarity and compassion?
In this uplifting conversation, Chris Cooper is joined by Lisa Bing, a sought-after leadership strategist, educator, and board leader whose career spans corporate boardrooms, NYU classrooms, faith communities, and the arts. Lisa has ad-vised executives across industries for over 20 years, drawing on unique methods that weave in movement, dance, and the performing arts to help leaders experience what trust, support, and connection really feel like.
Together they'll explore how to distinguish process problems from people problems and why getting this wrong causes unnecessary stress and failure, what true accountability looks like when it builds relationships rather than breaks them, the surprising leadership lessons from dance, movement, and the arts that can transform how teams collaborate, why diversity and inclusion aren't "initiatives" but core management responsibilities, and how Lisa's journey from Prudential to MOVE|NYC to mentoring senior executives reveals fresh ways to lead with humanity and impact.
Listen in for an inspiring and practical dialogue that will give you new tools for leading teams, building trust, and creating cultures where people thrive.
