  • Use language and boundaries that reduce fear and create psychological safety.

  • Build momentum through small, practical experiments that turn hesitation into progress.

  • [02:39] – Why teams become risk-averse: past punishments, cultural norms, and the illusion that hesitation equals diligence.
  • [04:42] – A practical team exercise: reframing risk by sharing stories of failures and lessons learned to normalize experimentation.
  • [07:17] – How to define boundaries upfront so risks feel safe and measurable, with clear success criteria and pivot points.
