Show Up as a Leader helps you lead authentically, break barriers, and make a positive impact, no matter your role. Dr. Rosie Ward leverages experience, stories, books, ideas, and insights to help further our understanding of ourselves.
Being “nice” might keep the peace, but being kind can change someone’s life.
Rosie sits down with Jennifer Loper, President of C3, to unpack what it really means to practice “clear is kind” in leadership, relationships, and workplace culture. Jennifer shares a powerful personal story that shaped her understanding of truth with care, then brings it into the everyday realities of leading a feedback-rich organization. 💛
Together, Rosie and Jennifer explore why feedback is a gift, how leaders can model vulnerability, and what it looks like to build systems that hold culture accountable. From 90-day reviews to rethinking nontraditional talent paths, this conversation is full of practical wisdom for people-first leaders who want to create workplaces where humans can grow, contribute, and become better versions of themselves.
