Change is constant—but connection doesn’t have to suffer.

In this episode of Relationships at Work, Russel Lolacher explores how leaders can build trust and protect the employee experience during times of change. Guest Dr. Devann Steele shares how transparency, empathy, and values-based communication can make or break your leadership.

Learn how to:

  • Avoid silence during uncertainty
  • Communicate even when you don’t have all the answers
  • Lead with “we” instead of “me”
  • Match your messaging to the scale of change
  • Care for yourself while caring for your team

For leaders navigating change, this is the communication episode you didn’t know you needed.
