The Light Bulb Paradox: Why Great Teams Adapt to the Dark

Why do brilliant teams choose to adapt to darkness instead of changing the light bulb? 💡 

In this episode of Unplugged with iSolution, Wessam Fawzy (Elsewedy) shares a powerful, real-life anecdote about how easily organizations grow complacent with outdated legacy technology. 

When a system is broken for long enough, teams stop complaining and adapt to the friction—mistaking stagnation for stability. Wessam breaks down how leaders can challenge the "we've always done it this way" mindset, push for continuous improvement (POCs), and keep their teams constantly evolving.
