“My team just doesn’t get it.”

Ever heard a manager say this?

“My team just doesn’t get it.”
In a session last week, a manager admitted, “Honestly, I feel like my employees are just... stupid.”
Oof. That’s a tough one to hear. But we didn’t flinch—we got curious.
What we uncovered was powerful.

Underneath that frustration was a deeper truth:
➡️ He felt unsupported.
➡️ He was drowning in pressure.
➡️ He didn’t know how to actually communicate what he needed.

It wasn’t about his team. It was about his disconnect—from himself, from others, from what kind of leader he wanted to be.

We didn’t jump to feedback models or performance plans.
We started with awareness. Ownership. Compassion.
Because when leaders shift from blame to self-inquiry, everything changes.
✨ From “they don’t get it”
→ To “what am I not seeing?”
That’s where growth begins.

Ever had a moment like that—on either side of the conversation?
