Have you ever agreed to a decision you didn’t actually want—just because you thought everyone else did?

In this episode of The Vancrux Podcast, we explore The Abilene Paradox: a psychological phenomenon where groups move in the wrong direction not out of stupidity or malice, but silence and assumption.

We begin inside a corporate boardroom where no one speaks up, then zoom out to everyday life—choosing where to eat, saying yes to one more drink, committing to plans you secretly regret. Through immersive storytelling, metaphors, and sharp insight, this episode reveals how fear of conflict, people-pleasing, and miscommunication quietly shape bad decisions over time.

If you’ve ever thought “Why did we agree to that?”—this episode will change how you see group decisions forever.
