How New Leaders Can Lead With Intention and Build Culture

Relationships at Work - The Leadership Guide to Building Workplace Connections and Avoiding Blind Spots.

Becoming a leader for the first time can feel like being dropped into the deep end—especially in a remote or hybrid world.

In this episode of Relationships at Work, principle of The Collective Good LLC Britt Hogue joins Russel Lolacher to explore what new leaders often get wrong, and how intentional leadership can build trust and team connection, even when everyone’s not in the same room.

They discuss:

• How remote work exposes lazy leadership habits
• Why relationship-building must be intentional
• What new leaders should prioritize in their first 90 days
• How culture starts with consistent action, not just messaging

💬 “If you’re just sitting in your office all day, that’s not leadership.”

Whether you're new to leadership or supporting someone who is, this episode will give you practical tools and a new perspective on what it takes to succeed in today’s workplace.
