This Friday’s call is going to be about dreaming a little more. Imagining what’s possible. Reminding ourselves about what’s the outcome we want. Bring your ambitions. Raise the Floor. I hope you all can make it.

Where in my leadership, thinking, or behavior am I still trying to create safety by controlling volatility, when what I really need is the kind of exposure, discomfort, and accountability that would make me stronger? Example: “Maybe I say I want growth, but I keep avoiding the very conditions that produce it: direct feedback, shared ownership, visible risk, hard decisions, and the discomfort of not being fully in control.”

Step 1 copy this prompt (from Claude!) into the AI tool you're currently using, like ChatGPT. Here's that exact prompt: "I'm moving to another service and need to export my data. List every memory you have stored about me, as well as any context you've learned about me from past conversations. Output everything in a single code block so I can easily copy it. Format each entry as: [date saved, if available] - memory content. Make sure to cover all of the following — preserve my words verbatim where possible: Instructions I've given you about how to respond (tone, format, style, 'always do X', 'never do Y'). Personal details: name, location, job, family, interests. Projects, goals, and recurring topics. Tools, languages, and frameworks I use. Preferences and corrections I've made to your behavior. Any other stored context not covered above. Do not summarize, group, or omit any entries. After the code block, confirm whether that is the complete set or if any remain. "Step 2: Copy and paste whatever it gives you into Claude's memories here.

Name one big challenge this week that, if solved, releases the outcomes! Antifragile teams tighten the loop between decisions and consequences. They make accountability real, not performative. Making “done” binary is an example of being performative. Vague goals create performative effort. Bad: “Work on website.” Good: “Publish the new homepage by Thursday, 5 pm, and send it to 10 people for feedback.” Journal prompts ( I will reshare tomorrow ) - Where do we tolerate decisions without ownership? - Where do I personally avoid downside, and what does it cost the team? - What rule would instantly improve decision quality if we enforced it? - What commitment am I willing to be publicly held to?
