Lessons From Putting Over 100 CEOs Underwater - by Jordi Mullor

The Difference Between Growth and the Performance of It.

At The Rebellion, we spend a lot of time thinking about growth, but more importantly, we spend our time inside of it. We design environments, frameworks, and experiences where people step outside of what’s familiar and into situations that ask something real from them. Not the idea of growth, not the conversation around it, but the actual moment where it either happens or it doesn’t. And because we’re in that work every day, across different teams, industries, and leaders, we get a front row seat to how people respond when things become real. Over time, something has become increasingly clear. There’s a version of growth that looks real from the outside… but isn’t.

Do S#$% That Matters by Jordi Mullor

The future will absolutely belong to people who understand technology. But it will belong even more to those who keep investing in something much harder and rewarding: developing their people. Are we developing our teams? Are we building deeper trust amongst each other? Are we having the hard conversations? Are we facing uncomfortable truths? Are we being more vulnerable? Are we challenging ourselves and others to expand what we are capable of? Are we hiding behind a new artificial layer of our own onion? Are we growing at all? Are we building sh#t that matters?

Be the Gardener, Not the Architect - by Jordi Mullor

Most leaders spend most of their time designing scalable and replicable systems that their teams can follow. The best ones learn to cultivate them. Inspired by Brian Eno’s recent interview with Ezra Klein, this Rebel's Chronicle episode explores why real sustainable growth, in teams and in ourselves, happens when we lead like gardeners, and not only as architects.

Why I Hate "You're Doing Great" by Jordi Mullor

"You’re doing great!" I get it. It’s supportive. It’s compassionate. Feels like you are helping.  But man I’ve come to hate those words. Not because they’re unkind, but because they give people a way out right when they’re closest to breaking through their edge. "Doing great” praises the steps already taken, as if the person has done above expectation already, but it also subtly tells them the hard part is over, even when it’s not. It invites them to settle… instead of stepping forward and exploring that limit. I I always correct it to: “You’ve got this.” Because that says, “You can still go further.” Listen to the entire blog/podcast and follow us at The Rebellion.

Lessons From Putting Over 100 CEOs Underwater - by Jordi Mullor

There’s a moment right before someone goes underwater — a pause, a flicker of doubt in their eyes — you can’t miss it. They take one last deep breath, usually close their eyes, and slowly submerge their face into the water. The surface goes still, and everything else fades away. I’ve witnessed this dance hundreds of times. They’re about to meet themselves — their full, true, present self.  Full audio of this blog post from our Rebel Chronicle.
