In this episode of The Fosgail Mindset, host Myka Kennedy Stephens explores the nuanced role of **sharing** as a leadership virtue. Drawing from life experience, organizational theory, and research, Myka challenges both the old command-and-control mindset and the pitfalls of excessive, boundary-less sharing. Discover why the real answer lies in **collaborative leadership**, a balanced approach where intentional communication, clear expectations, confident guidance, and continual professional development foster empowered, adaptive teams.

Listeners will hear practical strategies for navigating the middle ground between withholding and oversharing, gain actionable tips on fostering collaboration without sacrificing authority, and learn why investing in leadership skills across the whole team benefits organizations of all sizes—especially during times of change.

Whether you’re grappling with how much to share as a leader or eager to deepen your collaborative practice, this episode offers insight, reassurance, and real-world steps for your leadership journey.
