Don't Let Tacit Dissatisfaction Damage Trust

Send us a message - we'd love to hear from you

Have you ever felt that weighty silence in a team meeting when dissatisfaction hangs in the air but remains unspoken? That silence might be eroding trust beneath the surface of your relationships and organizations.

In this conversation, we explore how dissatisfaction manifests across different contexts - from personal relationships to large organizations, with special focus on team dynamics when remaining quiet creates invisible barriers.

We discuss how leaders can recognize the signs of team dissatisfaction before it undermines culture and introduce ideas for addressing it productively. The conversation also touches on our challenging relationship with self-disappointment and why we often avoid confronting uncomfortable emotions.

Join us as we unpack this universal experience that affects every relationship but rarely gets the attention it deserves and discover how properly addressing dissatisfaction can be the catalyst for rebuilding trust and connection in your most important relationships.
