Have you ever watched someone completely transform the moment power walked into the room?
In this episode of Leadership After 5, Kim opens with a scene from a church hallway that never left her, and unpacks what it revealed about one of the most quietly destructive dynamics in organizational life. Proximity to power.
From DC events to Miranda Priestly, Kim traces how the instinct to perform for power shows up everywhere, and what happens to an organization when that performance becomes the culture. The creativity that dies. The innovation that stops. The honest feedback that never makes it into the room.
Kim also gets honest about the leaders who enable it, sometimes without even realizing it, and what it actually takes to build a culture where people show up for the work instead of the worship.
