Description

When every voice in the room agrees in record time, chances are the best ideas just died of suffocation. The new episode of High-Performance Podcast exposes the hidden cost of “perfect harmony,” shows you how to build rigor without throttling speed, and hands you concrete tools—Red Team drills, skeptic roles, silent voting—to keep creativity sharp and groupthink powerless. Listen in and turn healthy dissent into your team’s unfair advantage.
