Have you ever sat through a meeting where every status was green (and you knew, deep down, that wasn’t actually true?
In this debut episode of Connected Culture, Organizational Psychologist and CEO Coach Dr. Jamie Shapiro unpacks why so many teams default to “everything’s on track” when it isn’t) and introduces a 500-year-old Japanese philosophy that her firm has adapted into a structured team practice for moving from a fear-based culture to a learning-based one.
You’ll learn:
— Why “this isn’t a communication problem, it’s a perfectionism problem”
— The difference between fear-based and learning-based team cultures
— What wabi sabi means and how Jamie discovered it inside a public company
— Why “failure” became a four-letter word — and what to call it instead
— The failure spectrum (and why most teams treat all failure the same)
— Type 1 (doing) vs. Type 2 (reflecting) learning, and the one teams skip
— The 6-step Wabi Sabi Practice for honest team reflection
