Episode notes

You know exactly what the right call is. You have known for three days. And you still have not made it. That is not a clarity problem. Most senior leaders have plenty of clarity. What they are missing is something the leadership industry almost never talks about — and it is costing their teams more than they realize. In week two of the Leadership Myths series, Tami goes after one of the most widely sold beliefs in leadership development. The idea that what you need most right now is more clarity. More frameworks for it. More retreats about it. More journaling toward it. And yet here you are — still revisiting Monday's decision on Thursday. KEY TAKEAWAYS Clarity tells you what to do — decision stability is what makes it hold You can have complete clarity and zero stability at the same time Every time a decision wavers the team recalibrates — and they start waiting too McKinsey research found only 20% of organizations excel at decision-making — and those generate up to 6% higher returns to stakeholders Decision stability is not fearlessness — it is leading through the doubt anyway ABOUT THIS SERIES The Leadership Myths series runs six weeks.
