  • Resumen

  • In this installment of the Gray Matter Moment, Ryan discusses the concept of known unknowns and the importance of acknowledging and valuing the work that is not directly seen. He draws parallels to the concept of dark matter in the universe, where there is something causing gravity that cannot be seen but its effects can be observed. Ryan emphasizes the need for leaders and managers to recognize and appreciate the known unknowns, as it contributes to the success of the team and organization. He also highlights the negative consequences of not valuing the unseen work, such as creating a zero-sum environment and dehumanizing people.
