Why Coaches Need Truth-Tellers: The Cost of Echo Chambers in Leadership
Most leaders say they want honesty, but many are not always as deliberate as they need to be in surrounding themselves with truth-tellers. In this episode, we'll discuss the book, Team of Rivals, which discusses why and how Abraham Lincoln built his presidential cabinet with rivals who would be willing to criticize and challenge him when necessary. This conversation breaks down how coaches can invite honest disagreement in meetings, while still demanding full commitment once decisions are made.
