How Much Is Silence Costing Your Team?
Take the Conversational Debt Quiz
Silence feels safe in the moment. But when concerns go unspoken, feedback is delayed, or difficult issues stay underground, teams accumulate conversational debt.
Like financial debt, it gets worse over time.
This quiz helps you assess your team’s debt level and identify how to reduce it.
Complete it alone or with your team. You’ll get a score, what it means, and practical next steps.
What your score means:
- Conversational debt results from patterns, not people.
- A slow score doesn’t mean everything’s okay.
- A medium score requires that some patterns require action before they escalate.
- A high score indicates that bad conversational patterns are the norm
