Maverick Thoughts

The Four Pillars of Maverick Leadership™

The Four Pillars of Maverick Leadership™ explain why leadership fails in complex systems - and how to rebuild the conditions that allow leadership to hold under pressure.

The Psychological Triad of Influence™ – The Invisible Architecture

Influence fails long before behaviour does. Explore the Psychological Triad of Influence™ - the trust, truth and thinking conditions that determine whether leadership influence holds under pressure.

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™.

Why your organisation isn’t moving

Organisations don’t slow down because of capability gaps - they slow down because they lose the ability to move. Calibrated Motion™ is Judith Germain’s concept describing the organisational state where influence lands cleanly and clarity, coherence and execution finally align.

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.
