Different people, same goal, good luck!
Different people, same goal, good luck!
Every manager eventually meets a team where the usual approach stops working for everyone at once. In this episode, Yamilet Nieto, manager at Air Liquide, shares what happened when the leadership style she trusted most, one built on closeness and relationships, stopped landing the same way across a genuinely diverse team.
Yamilet talks openly about what she tried first, why it did not work, and the moment she realised that searching for one motivational message that suited everyone was the wrong question altogether. She walks through how she learned to pay attention to what actually moved each person individually, how she handled the tension of treating people differently in the name of fairness, and what alignment looked like once she stopped forcing one approach onto a team that never needed one.
If you are leading a team that feels pulled in five directions and you are not sure where to start untangling it, this conversation offers a practical, honest way in.
Now you know. Because we told you.
