Maverick Thoughts

Psychological Oxygen™ – It keeps your systems breathing

Judith Germain defines Psychological Oxygen™ as the atmosphere that decides whether an organisation can think under pressure. When truth and thinking can move freely, systems breathe, adapt, and perform. When they can’t, cultures suffocate in polite dysfunction. Learn how to design breathable leadership across all four pillars of Maverick Leadership™.

Leadership in culture – The Maverick Command Crew Series

Maverick Leadership isn’t rebellion - it’s integrity in motion. Through Captain Kirk, we see intelligent disobedience paired with execution: psychological oxygen, DRIVEN™ decisiveness, Maverick Power used well, and Impact that turns vision into traction. This is calibrated motion - aligning logic, emotion, and purpose until the system holds under pressure.

Why psychological safety is the engine

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
