When progress slows—but the work can’t wait.
You care about the work. And the pressure to deliver never really stops. But when your team stalls - and the silence, hesitation, or half-commitments creep in - frustration builds.
That’s when we tend to push harder, fill the gaps, or speak faster.  And unintentionally, we shut others down.
