Principais Lições
The Dangerous Side of Doing Good
Excellence. Passion. Fairness. Balance. These aren't just workplace buzzwords-they're the pillars we build our careers on, the values we defend in meetings, the principles we teach our teams. But here's the uncomfortable truth: the very strengths you're most proud of might be quietly destroying your effectiveness as a leader. When does dedication cross into destructive obsession? When does fairness become paralysis? When does the pursuit of balance leave you achieving nothing at all? These questions matter because we've turned our virtues into untouchable sacred cows-and sacred cows, left unexamined, eventually trample everything in their path. The virtues you're most proud of are likely the ones most desperately needing examination. Not because virtues are bad, but because unexamined virtues become rigid ideologies that blind you to reality.
