The effort heuristic is a cognitive bias: we instinctively assume things that require more effort are of higher quality. When people invest effort - even just typing a reply, adding a name, or answering one question - they begin to feel ownership.

The Pratfall Effect is a psychological phenomenon where a highly competent person becomes more likable after making a small mistake, while the same mistake makes a mediocre person less likable.Flawless feels fake. A small mistake humanizes you.

The meeting ends. The real meeting happens in the parking lot or the coffee/smoke breaks. That's where you hear what will actually work, what won't, and all the problems no one wanted to talk about in the official meeting. Be there,
