The HumanUp Imperative

The Power Of Discord


Listen Later

Healthy relationships are mismatched 70% of the time. That's not a problem to fix. According to today's guest, it's the whole design.

Dr. Claudia Gold is a pediatrician and co-author of The Power of Discord with Dr. Ed Tronick, the researcher behind the famous Still Face experiment. Their work shows that the out-of-sync, messy, imperfect moments in any relationship are where trust actually gets built.

Rex and Claudia get into what that means at work: why curiosity beats certainty, what emotional absence looks like on a team, why "good enough" is essential and not just acceptable, and why "not knowing" might be the most underrated skill a leader can develop.

If you've ever felt a working relationship go sideways and didn't know how to fix it, this one's for you.
