    Leading from the Spirit

    Psychopath or CEO, Can You Tell the Difference? The interview was inspiring. The company values sounded wonderful. Then you met the leadership style—and suddenly “we’re a family” began to feel like a warning. What happens when charm gives way to manipulation, confidence becomes intimidation, and results matter more than the people delivering them? In this episode of Leading from the Spirit — A Survivor’s Guide for Christians in the Workplace, Christopher McLaughlin-Brooks brings humor, compassion, and a Christian perspective to a serious question: how do we respond when someone’s leadership leaves others feeling disposable? The provocative title opens a conversation about observable behavior, rather than diagnosing anyone. We explore the human cost of leadership without empathy—and how Christians can respond with discernment, clear boundaries, and integrity. If you’ve ever left a meeting questioning your worth, replayed a cutting remark all evening, or wondered whether keeping the peace means staying silent, this conversation is for you. Come for the eyebrow-raising title. Stay for encouragement to protect your dignity and remain grounded in Christ.

    Leading from the Spirit - Learning from Setbacks

    A setback can shake your confidence without having the final word on your future. A missed promotion, a disappointing review, or a project that falls apart can leave you wondering what comes next—and where God is in the uncertainty. In “Surviving Setbacks with Faith,” we explore how to face workplace disappointment honestly while staying grounded in Christ. With warmth, humor, and practical encouragement, we consider how to learn from what happened, resist letting one difficult season define your worth, and find the courage to take your next step. Faith leaves room for frustration, grief, and unanswered questions. It also gives us hope as we regroup and move forward. Join Leading from the Spirit — A Survival Guide for Christians in the Corporate Workplace for an encouraging reminder: your setback is part of your story, and there is still more to be written.

    Leading from the Spirit - CEO - Culture is YOUR Responsibility

    The Rot Starts at the Top—and So Does the Recovery. Dear CEOs: If your company has a toxic culture, fixing it isn’t an HR initiative. It’s your responsibility. Corporate America has a culture problem. Too many employees are suffering under leadership that mistakes fear for respect, intimidation for accountability, and winning at all costs for success. And too many CEOs are either unaware of the damage happening inside their organizations—or unwilling to confront it. In this powerful, unapologetic episode of Leading from the Spirit — A Survivor’s Guide to the Corporate Workplace, we’re turning the conversation toward the corner office. We’re asking some uncomfortable questions: ● Are your employees telling you the truth, or just what you want to hear? ● Have you surrounded yourself with courageous leaders—or a collection of yes-men? ● Are you rewarding executives who deliver results while destroying their teams? ● Do your company’s values actually guide decisions, or are they just inspirational words on a wall? ● Are you building a winning culture—or quietly allowing your organization to rot from within? Here’s the reality: Fear may produce compliance, but it will never inspire commitment. And profitability doesn’t excuse toxicity. Drawing on Christian principles of servant leadership, this episode challenges CEOs to look beyond financial performance, confront destructive behavior, and build organizations where integrity, accountability, and human dignity are nonnegotiable. Because truly successful organizations aren’t built on fear. They’re built by people who believe in their mission, trust their leadership, and know they matter. This episode doesn’t mince words. And it shouldn’t. Corporate America doesn’t need another poster about integrity. It needs executives willing to practice it. 🎧 Listen now. And if you know a CEO, executive, or leader who needs to hear this message, share it. Sometimes the most important leadership conversation is the one nobody in the executive suite is willing to have.
