Ep. 4 | How to Give Feedback Without the Drama

What happens when leaders are so overwhelmed they default to "lazy leadership" behaviors? Julie Holunga, fractional leadership and culture partner, has seen it firsthand—and she's here to fix it.

In this episode, Julie breaks down the communication habits that undermine even well-intentioned leaders. From her memorable networking encounter that bonded her friendship with Heather to her five (and a half)-step framework that transforms difficult conversations, this episode is packed with immediately actionable advice.

In this episode, Julie reveals:

  • The "lazy leadership" trap that's destroying workplace culture

  • Multitasking doesn't work (even for Gen Z)

  • Her five (and a half)-step feedback framework that actually works

  • The declarative communication style that creates equal status

  • Why saying "just" undermines your authority

  • The menopause-at-work conversation we're all avoiding

Creator of the Trusted Voice Paradigm™ and featured in Forbes Coaches Council, Julie's approach is simple: Be kind, be present, and stop making excuses for rushed leadership. Whether you're giving feedback to a chronically late employee or trying to show up authentically in meetings, Julie's insights will change how you communicate at work.
