Introduction

Hello! Welcome to Confessions of a Terrible Leader, a show where real leaders share the raw truth about the lessons they learned the hard way, so you don't have to! Join our host, Layci Nelson, founder and president of Transcend Leadership Collective and former terrible leader. Every leader can become worthy of being followed if they are willing to put in the work. On this podcast, we share the messy stories and behind-the-scenes reality of what the work actually entails. We welcome you to this community of revolutionary leaders who believe honest communication, healthy conflict, and building cultures of acceptance, respect, and trust are not only possible, but non-negotiable for cultivating world class teams.
