When employees at every level speak up, they circulate local knowledge, expand the universe of useful ideas, and prevent collective tunnel vision. And not infrequently, minority views turn into novel solutions. But you can’t speak a speak-up culture into existence — doing so in the absence of true psychological safety is an abdication of leadership and an admission of failure.

Brain drain sounds like that feeling you get at 4pm on a Friday. The coffee’s not working, the week’s almost over, and your focus is fading fast. Or could it be what happens when you meditate — draining your mind of all worries and thoughts? Actually, it’s neither. Brain drain happens when large groups of skilled workers leave an industry, company, or geographic area at once, draining it of human capital.

A theme in my work with leaders is "zooming out and zooming in." You zoom out to obtain a broader view, and you zoom in to perceive the details. You zoom out to consider alternative means of problem-solving, or whether a problem is worth your time and energy, or whether it's even a "problem" at all. You zoom in to narrow your field of vision, to focus your attention, and to make things happen.

If you’re unfamiliar with this story, Swedbank had a major outage in April 2022 that was caused by an unapproved change to their IT systems.

P EOPLE want to feel seen. We all do. We want to know, “Do I matter?” We want to know that the leader is invested in us. As leaders, it becomes a matter of how we treat others. Do we include them in meaningful action? Do we listen? Do we care about their future? Leaders who have a developmental focus make others feel seen. Interactions are not seen as transactional.
