Through his articles and expert analysis, Asbel shares the insight leaders like you need to anticipate change, make informed decisions, and take decisive action.

As leaders, it’s natural for us to want to help. We step in, offer solutions, fix problems, and ensure things keep moving. But somewhere along the way, if we’re not careful, our good intentions can morph into unintentional enablement—and that can quietly erode accountability, growth, and trust within our teams.
For many leaders, it stirs up discomfort. Something to avoid. Something to smooth over or quietly dismiss. But the more I lead, the more I’ve come to believe this: not all conflict is bad.
In today’s fast-paced and ever-changing world, comfort zones can become the greatest obstacles to personal and professional growth. While comfort may feel safe, it rarely leads to transformation. This idea was at the heart of my recent keynote, Courage in the Uncomfortable, where we explored the importance of stepping beyond what feels familiar and safe.
