“You cannot ignore the fact that at the end of the day we are human beings with biological, emotional and lifestyle needs that need to co-exist with the demands of the workplace.” Creating safe psychological spaces in the workplace with Dr. Tanvi Gautam on the Inspiring Great Leaders Podcast.

“II’ve always kind of had a little bit of sense of where I might want to step up and where I am best. Stepping back. I think that’s that’s a good skill to have, knowing when you should absolutely give way to somebody else.” Dr. Tanvi Gautam talks about knowing when to be a pilot and a copilot in leadership on the Inspiring Great Leaders Podcast.

“Nobody wants to be a part of this force ritual or, you know, tell me what’s going great in your life or the forced humanity kind of thing.
