Doesn't "disagree and commit" mean the opposite? I.e., that further discussion is pointless, but a decision has to be made now, and one party budges in favor of the other party?
- rantwasp 5y agono. it means that you disagree with the decision but after the commit that’s what everyone is going to do (you included)
- adwn 5y agoThat's exactly what I wrote: "disagree and commit" == end of discussion, everyone pulls in the same direction even if they don't like the decision.
- rantwasp 5y agoyes but no. technically further discussion could lead to a better outcome. so you’re right here. not right when saying that further discussion would be pointless. usually disagree and commit is used as a forcing factor by higher ups when the drone cannot make up their minds.
- efitz 5y agoYes, I also saw it used to bring around recalcitrant people (whether they were “right” or not), e.g. “it’s time for you to disagree and commit”.
- pseudalopex 5y agoIt covers before and after the final decision. Most of the text is about how people are supposed to be tenacious and not compromise for the sake of social cohesion.
