In this episode of The Leadership Match with Martin Rowinski, Martin sits down with Michael Eskenasy, Founder of ChefreyOS, for a quick leadership conversation about trust, context, accountability, communication, and what leaders often miss when pressure starts building inside a company.

Michael shares why the people around you may not be experiencing the same reality you are in the moment, and why great leaders need to understand where people are before pushing a message. If someone is not ready to receive the message, forcing it can create more confusion, panic, and fracture.

- How unclear roles and expectations create stress inside teams
- Why leaders need to explain the pressure behind decisions
- How accountability and personal responsibility changed Michael’s career
- Lessons from working with companies including Disney, Twilio, and Amazon
- Why impact can matter more than money or status
- Michael’s lesson from In "Search of Greatness" and Wayne Gretzky’s mindset
