From early success in engineering and business to a profound personal transformation, Randy shares how uncovering and releasing hidden emotional baggage reshaped his approach to leadership and life. Their conversation explores the link between vulnerability, compassion, and high performance, showing how leaders can build stronger teams and deeper connections by embracing their emotional truth.

Through powerful stories and practical insights, this discussion challenges outdated ideas of masculinity, authority, and leadership. Together Mark and Randy uncover why engineers and technical leaders must recognise their human side, how authentic leadership creates belonging, and why true power comes not from titles or positions but from serving others. This is a must listen for anyone ready to rethink leadership and discover the lasting impact of emotional intelligence.
