Clay Linkous explains why high-performing teams need disagreement. Debate sharpens decisions, but teams must converge on one course of action once the discussion ends.
In a healthy team, in a high-performing team, and this may shock some of you, but you actually will have space for healthy team debates. There will actually be space for disagreement. There will actually be space for people to share different thoughts, different opinions. Now, when we get outside of that space, we need to come together and be aligned. But there should be a space for somebody to go, "Hey, you know what? I see that differently than you. I'm not sure that's the right way to do it or the best way to do it." And that's okay. We still need to have a moment where we come together and no matter what our different opinions are, we agree on what's the one way to do it. But there needs to be space for those different ideas to be fleshed out.
