Episode 53 – Asking for Forgiveness Instead of Permission

One of the badass leadership principles is Ask for Forgiveness, not for Permission.   That scares a lot of people.  So how do you really integrate that into your badass life and practice? You never want to be reckless or insubordinate, but you definitely want to encourage your teams to own solutions and decisions I believe it is as reckless to hold up product with desire for certainty - sign offs, consensus, approvals Just make sure you have general vision and direction from leadership/product ownership You’ll need to be courageous at first, but it becomes second nature You will have to be prepared to protect your team and back up their decisions.
