Most people leaders know engagement is low. Fewer know why. In this session, Michelle explains the three needs every employee must have met to do good work: autonomy, competence and connection. She’ll show where managers erode them without noticing, through micromanagement, the behaviours they choose to celebrate, and the small incivilities that leaders tend to ignore until the damage shows. You’ll leave with a simple test to apply to any meeting, email or decision, and a clear view of the early warning signs that come before visible toxicity.
Michelle will also tackle the question every leadership team is facing: what unmanaged AI use does to the relationships that give work its meaning. You’ll get a practical before, during and after framework for healthy AI use, which research shows outperforms both unrestricted use and no use at all. She’ll also cover what psychological safety looks like in practice, and how to close the gap between the values on your wall and the culture people live every day. Expect tools you can use with your team on Monday, not theory.
