The Undiscussables: What Leaders Avoid and Why
An organization is only as healthy as it's honest. In this episode, hosts Brad McDonald and Taylor Jessup tackle the hidden dynamics that undermine organizational health—the undiscussables, the meetings after the meetings, and the difficult conversations we avoid to attempt to protect our egos and status. Drawing insights from Chris Argyris's book Overcoming Organizational Defenses, they explore what it looks like for leaders to go first and how valuing truth over peacekeeping can change your organization's entire dynamic.
