Summary
“If you want the truth, you need trust.” That line stayed with me. In this week’s In The Know podcast, I spoke with Lena Sisco – former military interrogator turned leadership and communication expert – about trust, truth, and how to spot a lie. She’s spent her career extracting the truth from people who had every reason not to share it. And it turns out the answer isn’t mind games or intimidation. It’s connection. As AI removes the humdrum parts of our jobs, the human stuff – trust, empathy, communication – becomes even more important. Lena’s view? 🧠 Be honest in your communication 🔁 Be consistent in your actions 🙋♂️ Be accountable for your mistakes In an era of deepfakes and digital doubt, that advice feels pretty timeless.
