What if what your team thinks is normal is only “normal for now”? The Overton Window shows that what’s acceptable today might’ve been unthinkable yesterday — and what’s radical now could become standard tomorrow.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

  • What the Overton Window really means: the range of ideas people deem acceptable at a given time. 
  • Why great leaders pay attention to that range — and how ignoring it can kill even the boldest initiative.
  • How you can shift the window within your team: reframing what’s “radical” to what becomes “possible.”

✨ Because sometimes, leadership isn’t about doing what everyone’s comfortable with — it’s about stretching what’s possible so your team can evolve.
