Great post, Wes. Assertions take courage and require extreme ownership.

I believe it's highly related to the High Agency topic I wrote last week: “High agency isn’t one skill — it’s the rare combination of clear thinking, bias to action, and the courage to disagree when it matters.”

This helps me understand why I was feeling less than impressed the other day working with a colleague. They kept sharing facts, figures, and data like I should be impressed, but we're missing action oriented suggestions, let alone assertions. This will help me coach myself and others to bring possible solutions to the table that are directly connected to accountability! Thank you!
