Ignoring the Problem | with Adrian Koehler & Dan Tocchini

You will learn about:

• The conversations we know we need to have (but continue to avoid)
• Why you can’t always just hire the problem away
• Why calling it a “problem” is probably making things worse
• Our tendency to villainize people who aren’t doing what we want
• Becoming aware of our default orientation in relationships
• How to identify the signs that you’re unwittingly ignoring a problem

 

Show Notes:

We come across so many leaders who are aware that they have problems or breakdowns within their organization, and they think it’ll just go away or fix itself if they ignore it. We tell ourselves it’s not a big issue, we try to convince ourselves that it’s not really a problem worth our time, but we’re just making excuses because having the difficult conversation makes us uncomfortable.

But what actually happens when you ignore a known problem? It becomes bigger and more pervasive, until it’s so big that it simply can't be ignored anymore — and, at that point, it’s a much more difficult problem to solve.
