The workplace is evolving, with six generations soon sharing space and bringing vastly different expectations around leadership and autonomy. Today’s workers—especially younger ones—want more than a paycheck. They crave purpose, impact, and the freedom to make meaningful decisions.

Melissa Severance, executive leadership coach and HR consultant, unpacks what real autonomy looks like and how it transforms culture. She challenges outdated leadership models that stifle innovation and explains why fear often holds leaders back from embracing trust and flexibility.
