Ep. 97 — Everybody Agreed. That's the Problem.

Somebody in your building disagreed with you this month, and you never heard about it.

In this episode, the Lewis brothers tackle healthy pushback — the kind of honest, constructive disagreement every leader says they want and most leaders unintentionally train their teams out of giving.

The conversation covers three things: what a yes-man culture costs a business, where pushback belongs and where it doesn't, and why the pushback you get is the pushback you've earned. Along the way they draw the line between a manager with backbone and a manager renegotiating a decision that's already been made — and they get into how three brothers who run one company handle it when they don't agree.

Practical, honest, and built from real experience running a four-generation family business in Northwest Arkansas.
