Script

[DARCY to camera, slightly more grounded]

Leaders were promoted because of their dominant Zoo style. That style got them here.

But the same wiring that drives results can — unchecked and unseen — drive people away.

And the higher someone rises, the less honest feedback they receive. That's the trap.

The Zoo creates an entry point that bypasses that dynamic — because it's not personal. It's structural.

This is the highest-leverage engagement a Zookeeper can make. Every culture is downstream of its leader.
