What if the root of today’s workplace dysfunction isn't strategy or skills, but a basic human disconnect?
Rosie sits down with Gregg Ward, founder of the Center for Respectful Leadership, to explore the crisis of disrespect in our workplaces and society. With a background that spans theater, journalism, and groundbreaking police training, Gregg shares how respect isn’t just a nicety, it’s a critical leadership skill tied to performance, connection, and healing.
They dive into the neuroscience of respect, generational shifts, and how even small behaviors like interrupting can quietly erode trust. From the R Factor Workshop to little league umpiring, Gregg models what it means to lead with empathy, accountability, and courage.
If you've ever felt frustrated by incivility, overwhelmed by AI-driven change, or unsure how to help your team thrive, this conversation will bring both clarity and hope.
Respect is a feeling. Respect is a choice.
