Topic: Panel review of Earns Trust response. Panel Consensus: The panel unanimously praises the candidate's sharp, nuanced observation about the team's lack of psychological safety as a root cause of the previous lead's failure, viewing it as evidence of elite systems thinking, customer empathy, proactivity, and high-level org awareness. All agree this is a strong green flag, but express concern over the process of jumping to senior leadership discussions without direct team engagement, which skips bottom-up validation, empathetic conversations, and hypothesis testing. Differences lie in emphasis: Sarah on org-scale ownership and influence, Jordan on relationship-building and trust, Marcus on prioritization trade-offs and stakeholder validation.
