Pocket Coaching: The Dirty Yes — and Why Strong Ground Changes Everything

Описание: In this episode, Molly talks about one of the most damaging (and common) leadership habits inside firms: the “dirty yes.” When teams agree in meetings but resist later, execution slows, trust breaks down, and leaders default to micromanagement.

Molly explains how strong-ground communication, psychological safety, and allowing clean “no’s” create aligned teams, shorter meetings, and better follow-through — without tension avoidance, burnout, or silent sabotage.


💫 Key Takeaways: 💫
✅ "Dirty yes" creates invisible drag and hinders open communication and trust within teams
✅ Psychological safety is crucial to ensure team members can express honest opinions without fear
✅ Strong ground communication results in shorter, efficient, and trackable meetings.
✅ Leaders are encouraged to allow for a "clean no" to avoid the pitfalls of superficial agreement.
✅ Reading and applying insights from "Don't Be a Yes Chick" can transform team dynamics
