Execution Over Ego: The Real Workplace Superpower
Being “easy to work with” doesn’t mean saying yes to everything. It means knowing when to speak up, when to ship, and how to get things done—without slowing everyone else down.
In this kick-off episode of The Collaboration Code series, Maziar takes aim at performative professionalism, bottleneck behaviour, and the myth that being demanding equals delivering excellence. With no-fluff insights and real-world scenarios, this episode explores:
Why being approachable isn’t weak—it’s efficient
How momentum, not micromanagement, builds real value
Signs you might be “protecting standards”… but actually blocking progress
What it really takes to be the person everyone trusts, recommends, and wants on the team
Forget the TED Talk tirades and ego-fueled delays. This one’s about becoming the high-output collaborator that lifts the room—and gets it done.
