It’s how leaders create alignment, how teams build trust, and how ideas truly land.Together, we explore:Why "everyone knows it" is completely different from "everyone knows that everyone knows it"The essential habit of knowing when to make the unspoken spoken (and when not to)How to use focal points to coordinate without wordsThe three types of human relationships—and why mixing them up destroys trustWhy blunt honesty can be just as damaging as ambiguityWhether you're leading a team, navigating a difficult conversation, or simply trying to communicate more effectively, this episode will transform how you think about language, relationships, and coordinationSteven’s new book ‘When Everyone Knows That Everyone Knows…’ is out now.
