// EPISODE SUMMARY

Sean Barnes covers the leadership and intent gap that causes the best people to leave — not for money, but because ownership and emotional intelligence aren't being modeled at the top. He explains the specific behaviors that signal to high performers that they've hit their ceiling, and the counterintuitive leadership moves that actually retain the people worth keeping.
