The Risks and Rewards of Speaking Up at Work

Some of the biggest risks we face aren’t global or organizational—they’re deeply personal. In this final episode of our season focused on "risk," we explore what it means to speak up in the workplace and beyond. Tippie’s Daniel Newton shares practical insights on how employees can overcome the fear of using their voice, and how leaders can build cultures where open communication is not just accepted, but expected. We’ll also hear from Tippie undergrad Callie Willham, who reflects on her own journey with public speaking and how facing that fear has helped her grow personally and professionally. It’s a reminder that taking personal risks—especially when it comes to finding and using your voice—can lead to powerful transformation. And finally, we’ll bring it all together with a Final Tip(pie) just for you.Learn More More on Daniel Newton How managers can encourage employees to speak up Watch Callie‘s story and those of other Tippie storytellers Learn more about your ad choices.
