He was “the bird lady’s son” growing up, worked in jail, threw a javelin on a national stage, and never planned on being a general manager — but Jason Spalding’s leadership story might just change the way you show up at work. 🐝

“It's always about people.”
That’s the one lesson he carried across rebar, sports, union tables, and the boardroom. And now, he's sharing how humility, inclusion, vulnerability, and evolution form the foundation of what he calls HIVE Leadership.

In this episode, Jason and Kristina dig into the real work of modern leadership—why annual reviews aren’t enough, how trust changes everything, and what bees can teach us about running high-performing teams.

Whether you’re a seasoned leader or just trying to manage your team better, this one will challenge and inspire you.
