What does it really take to lead a team when you are hired from the outside?In this episode of Small Insights, Big Impact (SiBI), Dr. David Tsetse reflects on his lived leadership experiences stepping into established teams as an external hire—where authority is given, but trust must be earned. Drawing from real-world transitions across organizations and cultures, this conversation explores why leadership success in these moments depends less on the role and more on the posture you choose.Being brought in from the outside means inheriting history, relationships, and unspoken expectations.
