In this episode, Kul explores why leadership teams can gradually become echo chambers - where ideas are reinforced rather than challenged. He unpacks how success, hierarchy, and the “politeness trap” can suppress dissent and fuel confirmation bias. Drawing on real-world examples like Kodak and Theranos, Kul highlights the risks of unchecked alignment and the importance of psychological safety.
Kul Mahay has over 3 decades experience in the leadership space. He works with organisations and leaders to develop powerful cultures of high value, and performance which is built all around their people.
