    Leadership Isn’t Complicated — We Just Overthink It
    Jan 21 2026

    What do people actually remember about great leaders? Hint: it’s not tools, titles, or technical brilliance. In this first episode of No Jerks Allowed: Real Talk on Leadership, Stephanie Licata, M.A., A.C.C. breaks down why leadership is so often over-engineered, and why behavior matters more than frameworks.

    Drawing from years of training middle managers and emerging leaders, she explores what truly defines great leadership, why coaching skills stick, and how organizations fall into the trap of solving leadership problems with one-off solutions. If you’re a People or Talent leader, a coach or consultant, or someone tired of watching the same leadership mistakes repeat themselves, this episode sets the foundation for doing leadership differently.
