Loneliness and isolation aren't personal failures; they're design flaws. It's easy to feel like you're failing when you can't overcome them, but the problem isn't you - it's the system. #MentalHealth

More contribution. Better thinking.

That’s what we’re building at The Curious Mindset.

In our last virtual session, Nicki Bass (business psychologist and former army officer) joined host Andy McMenemy and resident tech leader Steve Maxwell to unpack what leadership really looks like when the ground keeps shifting.

Drawing on the concept of Mission Command, the conversation challenged traditional ideas of control, resilience, and what teams actually need from their leaders in volatile moments.

Here are the key takeaways 👇

Trust is built when leaders provide the intent and the freedom for teams to create their own plans: a principle known as Mission Command.
