2026 In The Mix - Leadership Development: Why Good Leaders Keep the Wrong People Too Long

September 9, 2026 11:30 AM - 1:00 PM (MDT)

Description

Johnny Levy helps leaders find clarity in employee situations that feel impossible, so they can get unstuck, act with confidence, and create the conditions for people and teams to thrive.

In this session, Johnny starts with one deceptively simple question:

What kind of problem are you actually dealing with?

Leaders routinely apply the wrong solution to the wrong problem. They train someone who isn’t willing. They discipline someone who doesn’t understand. They tolerate a character problem because they think it’s a skill problem. They fire someone who might have thrived in a different role.

And sometimes they spend months trying to fix an employee when the leader’s own Kryptonite is keeping the situation stuck.

Johnny gives leaders a practical diagnostic framework for separating problems of environment and alignment, capability, character maturity, and leadership. From there, leaders can identify what belongs to them, what belongs to the employee, and what actually needs to happen next.
