Ryan Castle sits down with Ken Bogard, nine-year EOS implementer and author of Know Honesty, to challenge everything you think you know about communication in business. Ken's core argument is deceptively simple, and most leadership teams are only doing half of it. He unpacks why honesty and openness are two completely different behaviours, why your scorecard is useless without courageous conversations around it, and how growing disconnection is quietly eroding trust on leadership teams even when everyone's technically "in the room."
Ken delivers three powerful insights: why removing the exceptions to honesty is the boldest move you can make, how to use data as a unifying force rather than a weapon, and why openness, not honesty, is the real secret sauce to human connection and high-performance teams. Whether you're running weekly Level 10 meetings, trying to get your scorecard to actually mean something, or just wondering why your team still isn't clicking, this episode is your playbook.
Discover if your managers are driving results or letting commitments drift.
