REVERB 13: Managing Organizational Tension

Andy Stanley Leadership Podcast

NOTE

Embrace Tension for Growth

Recognizing personal and others' tolerance for tension is crucial in organizational dynamics. Some roles naturally involve low tension and specific responsibilities where outcomes are clear-cut, such as completing a task like mowing the lawn. However, many jobs inherently involve ongoing tensions, especially in a growing organization where progress and new ideas introduce challenges. Low tolerance for tension in critical roles can lead to dissatisfaction and hinder organizational effectiveness. It's essential to balance different capacities for managing tension, particularly in competing departments, to avoid creating problems and to foster a collaborative environment that embraces the constructive nature of tension.
