Why Employees Stop Telling the Truth (And How to Fix It)

In this episode of The Leadership Hustle, Andrea Fredrickson and Michelle Hill explore why employees stop telling the truth in meetings, executive conversations, and one‑on‑ones. From leaders who speak too quickly to those who unintentionally shut down debate with tone or facial expression, they unpack the subtle behaviors that teach teams it's safer to stay quiet.

You'll learn how false harmony develops, how psychological safety erodes over time, and what it's really costing your culture when people stop pushing back. If you believe your team tells you everything you need to know, this conversation may change your perspective.
