Sometimes growth requires more than learning something new.
It requires letting go of what once worked.
In this episode of Maydwell in Five, Jonathan Maydwell explores the leadership skill of unlearning. Drawing from an early classroom experience helping students shift away from familiar math strategies, Jonathan reflects on a pattern that also appears in organizations: people often hold onto routines and assumptions long after their usefulness fades.
Using the framework Clarity → Reflection → Growth, this episode offers a practical way leaders can help teams release outdated habits and create space for new thinking.
