Hold on to your seats folks, in this episode of Unstoppable @ Craig, there are no right or wrong answers. Join host Jandel Allen-Davis, M.D., CEO and president of Craig Hospital and Toby Huston, Ph.D., director of psychology at Craig as they discuss perpetual tensions through the lens of polarity management, an approach used when you have two points that are polar opposites and yet both of them are correct. Too often as leaders, we are in the mindset that if we just work smart enough or hard enough, we will find the right solution. Perhaps, it’s not a problem to solve but a polarity to manage.
It’s time to put on those polarity management lenses, sit back and join Toby and Jandel as they explore ways teams can move forward with a unified purpose. But first, don’t forget to subscribe to Unstoppable @ Craig.
