Today, we’re tackling one of the most common leadership struggles: being accessible without being overwhelmed. We’ll cover why being ‘always available’ hurts you and your team, practical ways to set boundaries, and how to create a culture where people get what they need—without needing you all the time.

Have you ever told someone what to do, only to have them push back, resist, or completely disengage? It's likely not because they're difficult—it's because people naturally resist being told what to do. Leadership isn't about telling people what to do. It's about guiding them to achieve a shared vision. When you shift from commanding to collaborating, you'll see incredible results—in not only performance but also trust, engagement, and morale. Today on the Champion Forum Podcast, we discuss why people don't like being told what to do and how leaders can shift from a directive to a collaborative approach.
