"The reason there is a lack of acceptance in teams is because there's usually a lack of clarity about what the team is there to do.’"

- Tegan Trovato

In this episode, I’m joined by CEO and executive team coach, Tegan Trovato. Our conversation dives deep into the power of radical acceptance within relationships and teams. Tegan breaks down how highly effective leadership teams use clarity of purpose to foster acceptance and unlock the power of diversity.

Key lessons highlighted in our conversation include:

👉 The necessity of radical acceptance within any team to foster an environment conducive to effective communication and decision-making.

👉 Teaching executives the difference between judgment and discernment can significantly aid in making unbiased and emotionally clean decisions.

👉 Emphasizing intentional actions like shared meals, walks, or check-ins can strengthen interpersonal connections within teams.

👉 The irony that slowing down to invest in relationships ultimately leads to greater long-term efficiency and productivity.

👉 How having clarity and alignment on team goals minimizes egos and power struggles, allowing the team to focus on common objectives.
