When your professional role as the realistic voice starts limiting your organization's vision

I've been the 'practical' voice in our social justice organization for years, always pushing for realistic goals and sustainable strategies, but lately I wonder if I've become the person who talks everyone out of being bold. The newer members have ideas I keep shooting down as 'unrealistic' and I'm not sure anymore if I'm being wise or just scared.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Someone's professional identity as a pragmatic strategist is potentially constraining the very innovation their organization needs to grow.
