Navigating Criticism with Courage with Mark McCully

Leadership is easy when everyone agrees. But the real test comes when the voices get loud, opinions fracture and every decision is met with scrutiny. Mark McCully, CEO of the American Angus Association, joins The Cultivating Leaders Podcast to share how he navigates criticism, conflict, and controversy while staying true to his mission and values. From managing 22,000 members with competing priorities to weathering social media storms and high-stakes industry debates, Mark offers a candid look at what steady, humble leadership requires today. Mark gets real about: Leading through criticism: why thick skin, empathy and intent matter more than popularity Communicating in conflict: how to listen, humanize the conversation and disagree without division Staying grounded through chaos: habits that keep leaders mission-focused in turbulent seasons This episode will challenge you to rethink how you respond when pressure rises and how humility and clarity can move people farther than force.
