ACERCA DE ESTE EPISODIO
Charm is powerful. Discernment is paramount.
This episode of the PiXL Pearls Series 9 explores how charm can connect and elevate – and how it can also distract, manipulate and conceal what really matters. Hosted by Rachel Johnson (PiXL CEO), this episode uses the story of Enron to examine what happens when magnetic personalities, weak oversight and silence create the perfect conditions for ethical failure.
A powerful reflection on the bright and dark sides of charm, how “charm offensives” work, and why leaders and followers alike must learn to spot the difference between connection and performance.
Have a listen to get wiser as a leader, not wowed as a follower. Remember! Charm may catch your attention but discernment protects your judgement.
Plus, there are free downloadable resources on the PiXL website to help you take the reflection further.
