Neuware - Discussing the UndiscussableSince his 1990 landmark book Overcoming Organizational Defenses, Chris Argyris has extensively researched and written about how well-meaning, smart people create vicious cycles of defensive behavior to protect themselves from embarrassment and threat. In Discussing the Undiscussable, Bill Noonan enlivens the scholarly work of Chris Argyris through the use of reflective exercises and easy-to-read chapters that illuminate the basic human experience endemic to the creation of defensive routines. This book offers hope for altering organizational defensive routines by leveraging the greatest opportunity for change-the way we think and act.Discussing the Undiscussable provides a set of practical 'how to do' exercises for detecting, surfacing, and discussing organizational defensive routines in a safe and productive way.

Readers will instantly recognize what has long been going on in the workplace, and will be able to develop the skills to talk about it productively.Praise for Discussing the Undiscussable'I highly recommend this book to leaders, consultants, and anyone else who wants to help teams and organizations learn to address their most challenging issues.
