When Leadership Gets Real | Al Pilong with Laura Glenn

In this episode of The AP Leadership Podcast, Al Pilong sits down with Laura Glenn, Chief Operating Officer of Munson Healthcare, for a thoughtful conversation on leadership, resilience, and authenticity.

Laura shares the leadership book that had the greatest impact on her early career, reflects on the importance of using your voice and setting boundaries, and discusses how leaders can create environments where innovation, transparency, and learning from failure are possible.

Together, Al and Laura explore what it means to lead with vulnerability, how to navigate difficult decisions without pretending to have all the answers, and why building a safe, trusting culture starts at the top.

Laura closes with a powerful reminder for anyone serving in healthcare: the work is demanding, but it is also a profound privilege.
