The Conversations Your Organization Can't Afford to Skip
When capable people learn to make themselves smaller to stay safe, everyone loses. The individual loses themselves. The organization loses the thinking it's paying for.
This is a 14-event virtual series hosted by executive leadership advisor Jackie Roby. Each session pairs a chapter from her new book, Palatable, Profitable, & Dying Inside, with a leading expert to name what's really happening inside high-performing teams — and what it costs to keep looking away.
For high performers. For HR. For the executives asking why their best people keep leaving.

About Your Host
Jackie Roby
Jackie Roby is an Executive Leadership Advisor, Peak Performance Strategist, and author of Palatable, Profitable, and Dying Inside: a book about what it actually costs organizations when high-performing leaders shrink to fit.
As founder of Inspired Journey Consulting, she works with high-potential talent and the organizations building their leadership pipelines, developing the decision-making, strategic thinking, and confident navigation of uncertainty that technical skills alone can't build.
This event series brings the book to life. Each conversation pairs Jackie with an expert whose work deepens the chapter's argument.
You're not just here to listen. You're here to lead differently.
