The certainty trap: Why change fails before it starts

Judith Germain - 0
Change rarely fails in conflict - it fails in hesitation. “Certainty addiction” keeps leaders waiting for proof instead of moving with purpose. Drawing on years of research, Judith Germain introduces the Change Eagerness Matrix™ - revealing how Change Eager Leaders use Strategic Influence to embed change into execution and build systems that hold under pressure.

Maverick Personality

Judith Germain - 0
The Maverick Personality is more than a set of difficult traits. It is a distinct, high-impact way of thinking and leading.

Why psychological safety is the engine

Judith Germain - 0
People often treat psychological safety as a soft concept - a side dish served during change. In Maverick Leadership, it's the whole operating system: the hard capacity of a system to carry truth under pressure and the quiet engine that keeps leadership in motion

Why strategy fails without Structural Influence™

Judith Germain - 0
Structural Influence™ is the hidden system that determines whether strategy survives contact with reality. Judith Germain explains why strong leaders still fail in weak systems - and why rebuilding influence pathways, decision integrity and truth channels is the key to strategy that actually delivers.

What consultancy really means

Judith Germain - 0
The Maverick Paradox is a leadership consultancy founded by Judith Germain. It redefines consultancy as the practice of turning paradox into progress - aligning influence, culture, and execution so leadership holds under pressure and delivers impact that lasts.

Leadership isn’t broken. But it is stuck.

Judith Germain - 0
Leadership isn’t broken - it’s stuck. Most organisations don’t fail because their people aren’t capable; they fail because their systems are wired to stall. The Maverick Paradox helps leaders redesign influence so strategy moves, cultures deliver, and leadership regains traction. Because without influence, leadership is theatre. With it, leadership moves.

When betrayal isn’t a breach – it’s a bottleneck

Judith Germain - 0
Part 2 of The Leadership Betrayal Arc exposes how betrayal hides inside systems that reward control over contribution. It shows how misused influence becomes a cultural bottleneck - protecting perception, delaying progress, and silencing the leaders who drive real change. This is where influence turns toxic, and where strategic clarity becomes the only path to repair.
