About this listen
Ever wonder why some bosses seem untouchable… until reality hits? In this episode of the From Boss to Leader series, Velma Knowles reveals why leaders who avoid discomfort and hide mistakes are leaving influence—and trust—on the table.
Radical transparency isn’t about oversharing. It’s about being real, honest, and human—even when it’s messy. Velma shares actionable steps to help you:
-
Admit what you don’t know and invite collaboration
-
Share professional struggles without losing authority
-
Celebrate lessons from failure to inspire loyalty
You’ll hear why Howard Schultz of Starbucks leaned into transparency during tough expansions and how his honesty created trust and commitment from his team. Velma mixes stories, humor, and practical tips to help you lead authentically, whether at work, at home, or in life.
Stop pretending perfection is leadership. Learn to build credibility, influence, and respect by showing up as a leader who is real.
