Few things test a leader’s character more than how they respond to accusations—whether those accusations are directed at them or happening around them in the workplace.

In this episode, Phillip Smith and I have a raw and honest conversation about one of the hardest realities of leadership: navigating accusations and harassment in the workplace.

We unpack: ✅ What leaders should do immediately when faced with an accusation—whether personal or within the team ✅ How transparency and truth protect credibility during high-pressure situations ✅ Why silence, avoidance, or defensiveness only deepens mistrust ✅ Practical steps to handle these issues with integrity, empathy, and fairness

This isn’t about theory—it’s about equipping leaders to act decisively and responsibly in moments that could define their legacy.
