When you treat loyal employees like pita bread — you’re going to tear something.
In this under‑10‑minute episode of The Best Leadership Podcast Ever, I dig into how many companies — including yours? — misunderstand loyalty, misplace people, and end up losing their best players.
What’s inside:
🤝 Why “finding jobs to fit people” isn’t loyalty, it’s a growth killer. 
🧱 The “pita people” concept — how some employees quietly ace one role and quietly drain value when promoted wrongly. 
💡 How true loyalty shows up in mentoring, matching people to roles, and protecting the core of your team.
🎧 Tune in now — stop confusing loyalty with permanence and start building a team that grows because you respected people where they were (and where they could go).
