Periagoge
Scenario

When your team avoids the reality of finite careers and mortality

My team works like death isn't real - endless projects, infinite growth plans, optimization for a future that assumes we'll all be here forever. Nobody talks about the fact that this work, this company, our careers, all of it ends, and I think that denial is making us miss what could be meaningful about what we're doing right now.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

A group is using busyness and endless planning to avoid confronting the temporary nature of their shared work.
