This is such a sharp reminder that what looks like strong leadership can quietly become structural compensation. When stability depends on a few high-capacity, high-commitment people, we build reliance instead of resilience.
Yes, individual resilience is tested while organizational resilience is weakened—a double risk. The good news? When we see it and name it, we gain an essential perspective for developing real solutions.
I appreciate the "common stabilizing behaviors." Actually, I'm guilty on almost all counts. You're making me wonder about the wisdom of my own stabilizing behaviors. Yikes.
Also appreciate your even-keeled, wisdom-resonant audio recording. Thanks, Rebecca.
@Craig Mattson, I’m there with you in self-reflection, more needed in some seasons than others. The behaviors are less of an issue than the duration and risk of creating an unsustainable dependency. Glad you appreciated the audio!
