The Leadership Table··21 September 2026·10 min

About this episode

Disagreement isn’t always disrespect, and it certainly isn’t always insubordination. In this episode of The Leadership Table, Dr. Jonathan Lotson explores how mature leaders can recognize the wisdom hidden in opposing perspectives, distinguish healthy disagreement from genuine disloyalty, and create a culture where people feel safe enough to tell the truth. Sometimes the voice challenging your decision may be the very voice protecting you from a costly mistake.
