Many leaders avoid vulnerability because they think it weakens authority — but controlled, 'micro-vulnerability' is a precise, repeatable behavior leaders can use to increase accountability, rebuild trust, and surface problems early. In this interview Mina Roberts and Bob Price unpack what micro-vulnerability looks like in real-world teams: a calibrated admission of uncertainty, a brief confession about a missed signal, or a small public correction that models candor without drama. We’ll hear short battlefield and corporate examples, then walk through three immediately usable moves leaders can practice this week to create ownership, reduce blame cycles, and make follow-through predictable. Mina and Bob offer scripting, timing cues, and a simple team ritual to normalize these moments so psychological safety and accountability rise together. Practical, tactical, and low-risk, this episode helps leaders use human connection — not policies — to make commitments stick and teams perform better.
