Scenario

When communication frameworks backfire in teams

Our leadership team agreed to implement radical candor six months ago but what actually happened is that two people use it as permission to be brutal while the rest of us have gotten more careful about what we say. The meetings have this weird energy now where some people are walking on eggshells and others are being unnecessarily harsh, and I don't think anyone feels like this is working.

More people experience this than they realize.

A group has adopted a practice without developing the collective wisdom to use it constructively, creating new forms of dysfunction.
