Radical transparency isn’t for the faint of heart. Most leaders hoard information, soften feedback, and protect egos. Ray Dalio flipped that script at Bridgewater Associates, building one of the world’s largest hedge funds on a culture where nothing is hidden, every meeting is recorded, and the best idea wins, regardless of title.

In this episode, Brian breaks down the philosophy behind radical transparency, why it works, and how you can adopt its principles without burning your team out. From real-time feedback to rewarding truth over hierarchy, you’ll see why leading with clarity - not comfort - creates stronger businesses and stronger leaders.

Your challenge: audit your transparency, give direct feedback today, and let the best idea - not the biggest title - win.
