Conflict Creates Alignment with Lisa Rosenthal
Episode 11
Tuesday, 9 December, 2025
What happens when a CEO builds a culture where disagreement isn’t a threat — it’s a requirement?Lisa Rosenthal, CEO of Mayvin, leads with unapologetic transparency. She invites dissent, celebrates challenge, and believes alignment is only possible when people are willing to say the uncomfortable things out loud. In her world, “conflict” isn’t chaos — it’s clarity. And she pushes her teams to embrace it through a simple rule: disagree twice, then commit.In our conversation, Lisa shares the leadership moments that shaped her no-filters philosophy, how she learned to love productive friction, and why “nice” cultures often collapse under the weight of unspoken truths. She also explains how she coaches managers to practice radical candor, how she eliminates drama by setting clear boundaries for debate, and why telling someone they’re wrong can be the greatest act of respect.If you’ve ever wondered how to build a team that moves fast, trusts deeply, and argues well, Lisa’s playbook — truth first, alignment second — is a masterclass in modern leadership.Lisa Rosenthal is the CEO and co-founder of Mayvin. Through her focus on innovation in corporate culture and strategic leadership, Mayvin has achieved significant growth by penetrating new and emerging markets through a diversified client base CONUS and OCONUS. Prior to starting Mayvin, she provided analytic, management, and operations support to DoD, DOE, the Intelligence Community, etc. etc.She has an MBA and a BA from American University and is a lifelong learner. In her free time, she also co-runs an Angel Fund, LeVel Up Ventures, with her business partner (Victor) and Pangea Foundation, a non-profit supporting numerous causes, with her real-life partner (Matt).Lisa loves being part of the global community and proudly serves on the Florida Atlantic University Advisory Board, the Truist DC Advisory Board, the American University Entrepreneurship Council, the Kogod Advisory Board, Women in Homeland Security, etc. etc.Lisa has an addiction to obtaining new “unique” skills, certifications, and experiences – everything from Scuba to Wine, from Life Coach to Medicinal Plants, from Archery to Conflict Management, from Angel Investing to Nutrition. The list just gets weirder “more diverse” the older she gets.Dave Osh sat down with Lisa to explore how candor, conflict, and psychological safety shape strong leadership — and why avoiding tension is the fastest way to slow a company down.Dave Osh is the founder of Varlinx and a transformation catalyst dedicated to evolving leadership potential and creating a ripple effect of unity in our divided world. His conversations surface practical, human strategies leaders can use tomorrow.
