Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard

And I see it in experiments in the hospital as well in surveys. Nurses can't speak up when they see a colleague making an error for the same reason. Wow.

Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard

How can you? Even with physicians in this particular survey, it was less than 1% whether you had a supervisory role of the physician or not. Less than 1% could actually tell them if it was something about the physician's incompetence. You don't want that. You want your co-pilots to speak up.

You want supervising physicians and nurses working with physicians to speak up if they see something going wrong. Because these life and death situations are huge. But even when it's not life and death, and sometimes you don't know, like as the rookie cops, right, they probably didn't know this was going to turn out to be an unfolding murder or life and death type of situation. Yeah.

But you don't want to end up in those situations because you're so wired to go along with it. You're so socialized to say, OK, I'm going to obey.

The Oxford English Dictionary definition of defiance is to challenge the power of someone else boldly and openly. And I shouldn't really disagree with that having been brought up in English. It's the best. I do. I think it's way too narrow.

And I think a better definition of defiance, considering everything that we've spoken about, is that to defy is simply to act in accordance with your own true values, your core values, when there is pressure to do otherwise.

And also values can involve other people too. Speaking up when you see somebody causing harm to someone else is really a communal act in a way. So redefining, reframing defiance from this negative connotation to being a proactive positive force in society. Because if you think about it, every single act of consent and dissent and compliance, that creates the society that we live in.

So if you're socialized to comply from a young age, if you're rewarded for being compliant, and I know I was, you probably were. I don't know if you were.
