Have you heard of the concept of a Fool's Choice? I saw a meme and looked it up only to end up in a deep dive into a likely incredible book that I’ll more likely never read in it’s entirety called but I encourage you to do so - it’s called "Crucial Conversations: Tools for Talking When Stakes Are High" written by Kerry Patterson, Joseph Grenny, Ron McMillan, and Al Switzler. Either way, I’ll share now what I found online in various places: According to the authors, The Fool's Choice is the false assumption that we must choose between telling the truth and keeping a friend or colleague. Today, we're talking about how to avoid this trap.
