Is Your Defensiveness Getting in the Way of Your Success?
Description
Most of us think we're protecting ourselves.
The reality is we're often making it harder to build trust, lead people and work well together.
We all get defensive. The question is whether we notice it.
In this episode, we unpack the five defensive stances we all fall into, why awareness is the first step towards change, and how becoming just a little less defensive can transform the way we work with other people.
I'm joined by Rich Watkins, someone I've known for nearly 20 years and one of the most thoughtful people I know when it comes to how humans work together. Rich has helped thousands of leaders and teams build stronger relationships, navigate conflict and collaborate more effectively.
