I've read somewhere about how leadership challenges need 2 opposite factions: the jesters and the adults. The jesters loudly mock and complain the decision, the adults speek softly using words like 'concerned'. Neither faction alone us enough. The jesters are obnoxious and the adults easily ignored. Together, the adults provide a safe space for the leaders to retreat into without loosing face, while the jesters demonstrate the necessity of the change.
