This launches our latest experimental series. In "Leading Edge 120," ILI regular Greg Moran will bring us important news for leaders from the past week -- with his well-honed perspective added to the mix. In our debut episode, Greg reviews the report last week tracking continued worker disengagement, and why that means quiet quitting also continues unabated. It's a clarion call for leaders if they want any hope of keeping their best talent on board!

Learning from the Leading Edge
Every news story has a lesson for leaders. The problem is: that lesson is rarely easy to see behind the attention-grabbing headlines of news outlets. That's where Greg Moran comes in. From megacorps such as Ford to small tech startups, Greg has held leadership roles in businesses of all sizes. He brings that vast experience to bear, peaking behind the curtain to see what leaders can learn from the top news stories each week. Guiding the conversation is multi-award-winning leadership author, consultant, coach, and CEO Maureen Metcalf.
Together, they help hone your leadership so you learn from the news, instead of being the news!
