About this listen

What happens when a foreign nation offers a sitting U.S. president a luxurious, $400 million "flying palace"? In this episode of America's Employee Handbook, host Dani Sterbinsky dives into Qatar's royal family's unprecedented May 2025 proposal to gift former President Trump a lavish Boeing 747-8. Using the sharp lens of industrial-organizational psychology, Dani explores the explosive reactions across Capitol Hill, dissects constitutional boundaries, and draws compelling parallels with historic presidential gifts and notorious corporate scandals. Through vivid storytelling, insightful expert commentary, and engaging listener challenges, discover how breaches in ethical guardrails ripple through organizations, influencing culture, trust, and compliance. Tune in as Dani navigates the turbulence of emoluments, ethics, and organizational accountability—because compliance isn't just paperwork; it's the safety harness keeping AmeriCo flying smoothly.
