Disagreement helps leaders to clarify their thinking and challenges them to examine the assumptions underlying their opinions, conclusions, and decisions.
I like the concluding part of today's note- "just as agreement is the foundation of consensus, disagreement is the cornerstone of quality decision-making. Without it, leaders are defenseless against their own opinions."
Encouraging disagreement can be such a powerful tool! 💡 Healthy debate and differing perspectives push us to think critically and challenge our assumptions, leading to better decisions and innovation. It’s not about being right, but about learning and growing through constructive dialogue.
How do you create an environment where people feel safe to disagree? Have you experienced moments where rewarding disagreement led to breakthroughs in your team or organization?
Let’s share some examples of how embracing opposing viewpoints has led to success! ⬇️
Once again, a very insightful article. I agree disagreements are key and essential to clarifying thinking and assumptions. One of the real keys to disagreements, however, is to find TRUTH. It is often hard to find within different definitions and perspectives. Here is a recent article where I explore how this works within an organization. I hope that you like it and that it provides you with some additional thoughts on the subject. Otherwise, just disagree with it and let me know. https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/organizational-truth-bob-price-fm94e/

Excellent. A good leader always has someone in the inter circle who can respectfully tell the Boss respectfully they are full of BS
