The Leadership Mistake That Costs Organisations Millions

In this conversation, Roni Millard explores why executive wellbeing is not simply a personal issue, but a strategic leadership and business priority. Drawing on her experience as a former CMO and Executive Wellbeing Strategist, Roni discusses the connection between leadership wellbeing, psychological safety, decision-making and organisational performance.
