19 - Brian Cromer - Team Health, Clear Vision & Conviction

Описание: What makes teams actually healthy over the long haul? In this conversation with Brian Cromer, we talk about the fundamentals that never stop mattering: caring for people before correcting them, giving the “gift of clarity” (not just big vision), and building cultures where people feel heard and own the mission. Brian also opens up about navigating “church hurt” without becoming bitter, and the work he’s done to grow in empathy and keep his heart soft.
