I am being a bit cheeky, but I really do think this is a powerful psychological force that shapes orgs far more than we realize: it can be emotionally damaging to have people tell you “no” or question your ideas, and leadership means getting that •all the time•. People in management / executive positions — who are in fact very much people, all too human — will go to great lengths to protect their own psyches from the injury of pushback.

This is a •powerful• force in orgs.
