Why Your Business Tensions Are a Competitive Advantage with MissingLogic Co-Founders Dr. Tracy & Michelle Troseth
In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Tracy Christopherson and Michelle Troseth —co-founders of Missing Logic and authors of Polarity Intelligence—to talk about a major pivot they made from serving healthcare leaders to serving entrepreneurs, and how they had to use their own polarity framework when tension rose in their partnership. We unpack how to tell the difference between solvable problems and ongoing polarities, why “problems” that keep returning are often tensions to manage, and how to map polarities by identifying the benefits and risks of each pole, defining actions, and watching early warning signs. We also discuss identity shifts for thought leaders, the role of healthy relationships and meaningful dialogue on teams, and practical ways to measure and monitor tensions. 01:15 Why They Pivoted 03:36 Alignment and Identity 06:39 Walking Polarity Pair 09:02 Problem vs Polarity 11:05 Mapping and Warning Signs 14:04 Tech and Dynamic Balance 17:46 Working Through Tension 22:39 Dialogue and Resistance Connect with Dr Tracy Christopherson and Michelle Troseth.: • www.polarityintelligence.com www.missinglogic.com https://www.linkedin.com/in/michelletroseth/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/tracy-christopherson/ https://www.instagram.com/polaritypowerpair/ https://www.facebook.com/polaritypowerpair/ Connect with Raul: • Work with Raul: https://dogoodwork.io • Free Growth Resources: https://dogoodwork.io/resources
