Let Go & Lead with Maril MacDonald

Let Go of Sameness as Culture Fit: Why It Isn't a Strength

Peter Mann, CEO and Founder of Oransi and author of the forthcoming book The Perception Revolution, joins Maril to explore what happens when organizational systems are built by one kind of brain and mistaken for universal. Diagnosed autistic at 55 after nearly four decades in leadership, including as a Navy combat veteran and Fortune 100 executive, Peter unpacks the "projection fallacy," the "25/25 problem," and his SHIELD framework for redesigning systems so psychological safety and cognitive diversity aren't the exception–but the default. It's a conversation about why “culture fit” often just means hiring people like us, and why the companies willing to let that go are the ones positioned to out-innovate everyone else.
