You’re in a meeting.
You ask a straight question.
You get a… fuzzy answer.
It happens all the time, especially in leadership.
Here’s a lens I’ve found incredibly useful when coaching CEOs:
Are humans evolved for truth… or for survival?
As a CEO, you need truth.
You need to know what’s really going on so you can make the right call.
But most people? They’re wired for survival.
That means:
Especially in tough environments or dysfunctional teams.
Once you see it, you can’t unsee it and you’ll lead very differently.
If you’ve ever walked out of a conversation thinking, “I’m not getting the full picture,” this is for you.
