Curtis Sprouse, Founder & CEO of Eureka Connect, argues that behavioral science is the missing link in leadership: validated data accelerates how leaders understand their teams, and self-awareness—not title or tenure—is what actually separates strong leaders from struggling ones. In this Expert Insight Interview he explains why even successful CEOs carry blind spots, how trust is built, and what AI will and won’t change.
