À propos de ce contenu audio
Some conversations never reach the real issue because they get intercepted at the first technical correction. Someone jumps in with a precision nit, the group pivots into defensiveness or pedantry, and the decision that mattered never gets made.
This episode names that pattern: the “Ackshually” Gate.
Anthony Veltri breaks down how the gate works in high-stakes environments: a technically correct point becomes a social weapon, status signal, or escape hatch. The group starts debating terminology, edge cases, or irrelevant mechanism details, and the original intent of the meeting dies quietly. The result is decision drag, stalled alignment, and a false sense of rigor.
You will also get the repair move: separate “precision that changes responsibility” from “precision that changes nothing.” Keep corrections in a parking lot unless they alter the decision. Bring the group back to objective, decision owner, and next action. If the correction matters, name exactly what changes. If it does not, stop paying it attention.
Reflection: Are you using precision to increase truth, or to avoid the decision?
