Listen "Stop Avoiding Hard Conversations at Work"
Episode Synopsis
Silence is compliance. That’s the raw truth at the heart of this episode.Josh Anderson and Bob Galen dive into what it really means to speak truth to power — and why so many teams and leaders fail to do it. They unpack the fear, politeness, and avoidance that keep people quiet, and share hard-won advice on building a culture where truth-telling is not just encouraged but expected.Through real stories, role-playing, and honest debate, they challenge leaders (title or not) to step up, put the uncomfortable truth on the table, and make it normal to question, disagree, and align on what’s real. This episode isn’t about being reckless with words — it’s about building trust, courage, and clarity, even when it’s uncomfortable.🔴 Join Josh's CTO Office HoursNeed help with your technology leadership challenges?
