The Primary Sources of Executive Conflict

April 13, 2026·29 min
Episode Description from the Publisher

The conflict you're avoiding at work? It probably started long before you ever had a job. Tegan and Maggie dig into what actually causes conflict in teams, in the executive suite, and between two people who just can't seem to get on the same page. From unclear roles and accountability gaps to ego dynamics, misaligned incentives, and the CEO behaviors nobody talks about, they cover the full picture. Plus, the one thing Tegan wants every leader to sit with: how curious are you actually being about the other person and about yourself?
