The
Mutiny
Minute
Embracing Constructive Disagreement
Let’s imagine you've been
granted one minute each day to
respectfully mutiny against any
aspect of your organization.
How would you use this
mutiny minute to
positively rock the boat?
Every organization needs
"Certified Contrarians" to
uncover blind spots and
challenge groupthink…
But the spirit should be
warm-hearted rebellion,
not antagonistic
troublemaking.
The Perils of Unchecked Dissent
Mavericks
Threaten Stability Anonymity
Removes
Accountability
Dissent Without
Discipline =
Anarchy
Even "Cognitive diversity" is
often a euphemism for promoting
fringe perspectives.
So how can we build a
culture of candid ideas,
and the humility to
sincerely consider them?
Question
Everything.
No topic, assumption or practice
is off limits to constructive
challenge.
Transparency
Over Anonymity.
Critique ideas openly, not
from behind a mask.
Be open, yet kind.
Disagree
Respectfully.
Vigorously debate concepts
without making it personal.
Criticize concepts, not colleagues.
This Isn’t A
Popularity
Contest.
Be prepared to air
unpopular perspectives.
The value of dissent does
not rely on its popularity.
Get Ready
To Be
Wrong.
Changing your mind in the face
of new evidence is smart, not
weak.
Value truth over ego.
Progress, Not
Politics.
Critique for the greater
good, not to score points or
get even.
No Whining.
Complaining without viable
solutions is unproductive.
The Best
Ideas Win.
Judge concepts on merit,
not just who raised them.
Shut Up
And
Listen.
Listen deeply. Understand
objections before refuting
them.
House
Rules
Pass Or Participate.
Keep It Short.
Facilitation In Rotation.
Respect The Clock.
Strive For Balance.
Don’t Take It Personal.
Capture Key Insights.
Take risks.
No dissent is too
provocative during your
minute.
Talk Like A Pirate
How…
would your work change if evaluated on
environmental impact over financials?
What…
is an idea you once dismissed that
merits revisiting with an open mind?
If…
another culture/region led similar work,
what could their mindset/methods offer
us?
Aaaarrrgh!

  14. Here are some suggested House Rules for executing the "Mutiny Minute" at meeting openings: Participants take just 1 minute to respectfully voice an unpopular opinion, present a concerning assumption, or propose an radical idea on any topic. Participation is optional, but aims to elevate unheard voices. This isn't a soapbox - Stick to 1 minute. All voices hold equal weight - Rotating facilitation prevents a vocal few from dominating. Respect the minute - No critiquing others during their Mutiny Minute. Surface concerns but also propose solutions or alternative visions. Don't take it personally - Mutiny Minutes question ideas, not individuals. Our aim is surfacing dissent strategically to make decisions fuller, produce better outcomes and increase buy-in over the long run through informed processes.

  16. Homogenous cultures and consensus thinking hamper growth.
  17. So Take risks. Voice bold critiques and unorthodox ideas. No dissent is too provocative during your minute.
  18. Instituting brief daily dissent can profoundly improve critical thinking skills, create more inclusive group dynamics, and normalize speaking truth to power. So let me know what do you think - could the Mutiny Minute spark positive change in your organization?
