In this episode, Sean, Paul, and Holly dive into the playful—but surprisingly effective—ways teams influence leadership, from decorating the comp leader’s office to deploying well-timed snack diplomacy. Through humor and a bit of “friendly bribery,” they reveal how unconventional tactics can spark alignment, strengthen relationships, and get everyone working toward the same goals. The message: leadership influence often thrives on creativity, connection, and a well-timed laugh.
