Age, retirement, succession, failure, money, politics: these subjects often feel too sensitive to touch. So we avoid them, sticking to small talk. But avoidance comes at a cost. When we can't address the realities shaping our lives and careers, trust erodes and relationships suffer. Is this really the new normal? In “Unspeakable,” Harvard Business School’s Christina Wing argues that it shouldn't be. Wing has spent decades working with family-run businesses and in boardrooms and classrooms. Now, she’s revealing how fear and inhibition undermine performance—and how learning to address and talk about the "unspeakables" can improve our organizations and our lives.
