Don’t silence the trouble-maker




Don’t silence the trouble-maker.

There are roles in a team that everyone aspires too; joker, baker and candlestick maker. Very few consider the trouble-maker as a prominent role. Why? Because this individual is always stirring up trouble, asking the awkward questions, raising the anxiety levels of the team and killing creativity. Is creativity depended upon them?

Some may argue they see the world differently? Others say they use a wider lens.
Some may argue they possess deeper insights? Others say they hold back judgement and listen.

Some want to silence them and still be creative,…..BANG!!! ……

I played that role once too, not for long though.
