Disagreement feels like rejection. Agreement feels like validation.
Disagreement is discomfort. Agreement is comfort.
But if you’re a leader, agreement can be a trap because your idea isn’t always the best.
The best ideas, or maybe the best outcomes, come from creative tension. From friction. From someone brave enough to say, “That doesn’t make sense.”
Want better ideas? Invite your people to disagree. Create space where people don’t have to nod along.
If no one’s pushing back, you’re probably not leading. You’re just broadcasting.
