117: You’re Leading While Being Watched - And It’s Making You Softer

Are you leading, or are you performing? In a world of Slack screenshots, recorded Zoom calls, and email read receipts, leaders are being watched more than ever. Tammy J. Bond pulls back the curtain on a dangerous trend: Leadership under constant observation breeds hesitation. When we feel watched, we stop thinking clearly and start performing for the audience. We swap clarity for consensus and direction for delay. In this episode, Tammy challenges you to stop self-censoring, take back your personal authority, and remember that you weren't hired to be interpreted—you were hired to decide. In This Episode, You’ll Discover: The Observation Trap: Why constant visibility often leads to "Performance" instead of "Leadership." The Truth About Self-Censorship: Why editing your voice in a meeting isn't a sign of maturity—it’s fear dressed up in a blazer. Choosing vs. Changing: The heavy reality that when you refuse to change an environment, you are actively choosing it. Deciding vs. Interpreting: Why your role is to make the call, not to wait for a consensus that may never come. Taking Command: How to stop asking for permission to lead and start resetting the standards for your team. Tammy’s Sandbox Truths: "Leadership under constant observation breeds hesitation." "When you’re not changing an environment, you’re choosing it." "You weren’t hired to perform in a game. You were hired to decide." "Self-editing is what disqualifies you; being watched does not." Power Questions for Your "Sandbox Reset": For Self-Reflection: Whose "email address" or title am I currently allowing to silence my best ideas in meetings? For Strategy: Am I providing my team with clear targets, or am I forcing them to ask for permission at every turn? For Boldness: What is one decision I have been delaying because I’m afraid of how it will be "interpreted"?
