165: The Slow Death of Courage in Organisations

In this episode, Kul explores how courage quietly fades within organisations - and why its loss is so dangerous. He examines how fear, defensiveness, and hierarchy can suppress honesty, leading to silence, poor decisions, and missed risks. Drawing on powerful real-world examples, Kul highlights the critical role of psychological safety and leadership behaviour in sustaining a culture of truth. Tune in to discover why courageous conversations aren’t optional - they’re essential for learning, resilience, and long-term success.
