The Power of One: How Every Leader Can Individually Contribute to Team Culture & Success

Episode 54

In this episode of the Small Brave Moves podcast, we explore one of the most overlooked truths about leadership and culture: you don’t need a title to make an impact.

When uncertainty is swirling - reorgs, layoffs, AI disruption, hybrid confusion - it’s tempting to shrink back and think "what difference can I make?" But the reality is, every Slack message, every meeting comment, every hallway conversation sends a signal that shapes your team’s energy and culture.

Join me for an honest discussion about: 

  • Why brave leadership isn’t always big or loud—it’s often small, consistent acts that ripple outward
  • How cynicism, apathy, and disengagement spread (and how care and courage spread faster)
  • The contagious power of showing up authentically and modeling what matters
  • Three small brave moves you can practice this week to shift the energy in your workplace 

Whether you lead a team of one or one thousand, the way you show up matters. 

Bravery isn’t top-down—it’s inside out. And when you step into the power of individual contribution, you create the kind of culture where people feel safe to care, contribute, and thrive.
