#208 The Real Reason Your Strategy Isn’t Landing: Rose Fass on the leadership skill that changes everything

If your strategy isn’t landing, it’s probably not the strategy. It’s the conversation.

In this episode, I’m joined by Rose Fass — the person Fortune 500 CEOs call when things go sideways. Founder of fassforward and author of The Chocolate Conversation, Rose helps leaders get clear, aligned, and heard.

We talk:

• What’s really being heard when you speak
• Why poor communication costs more than poor strategy
• How to shift conversations without triggering resistance

This is a masterclass in CEO-level clarity — and the power of saying the one thing that moves everything forward.

🎧 Tune in. Let Rose shift the way you lead.
