It’s Blogvent, day 11, where I blog daily in December!

I learned about The Abilene Paradox a while back from Ben Hong.

Long story short, this is when a group of people ends up doing something that nobody actually wants to do because they are not good at talking about it.

I feel like this happens a lot both on group trips amongst friends, or times when you’re wanting to hang out with people and not step on toes… and at work when you have far too many meetings about a project and how to go about it. Reminds me of the phrase, “death by committee.”

Food for thought, don’t you think? Send this passive aggressively to your coworkers <3
