19 | The Pendulum Effect

from Method | Unstoppable · host Clark Masterson

In this episode, I break down “The Pendulum Effect” and why high performers and leaders often create new problems while trying to solve old ones. We’ll cover: • Why overcorrection happens • How leaders swing between extremes • Examples from leadership, AI, feedback, and culture • Why balance—not extremism—is where effectiveness lives The best leaders don’t live at the extremes. Instead, they learn to hold tension, nuance, and balance.
