Beyond Good Intentions: Why Some Leaders Fall Short with Sarah Downing
On the sixty-second episode of The Calibration Point Podcast, Jamie Levy sits down with Sarah Downing, Director of Philanthropic Sustainability at JDLA and a current doctoral student in Strategic Leadership. Together, they dive deep into the intersection of culture and leadership. Sarah sheds light on how good intentions often fall short of creating real impact. Drawing from research-based insights, she challenges the common belief that simply "leading by example" is enough—and explains why intentional, active leadership is essential to building a truly ethical culture. This episode is packed with practical strategies you can implement today to move beyond good intentions and start actively shaping the culture your organization needs to thrive.
