Nothing dramatic happened. No arguments. No pushback.
Everyone agreed. We moved on. But later, in a one on one or a Slack message, someone would say, “Yeah… I wasn’t totally comfortable with that either.”
And that’s the part that stuck with me. How often are we all thinking the same thing… and just waiting for someone else to say it first?
That question is why I built The Elephant. It’s very simple.
Everyone anonymously writes one sentence: What do you think we’re not saying out loud?
If more than one person independently mentions the same concern, it shows up. If you’re the only one thinking it, it stays private.
No votes. No threads. No exposing who said what.
If nothing appears, nothing appears. It’s small on purpose. It’s not trying to fix conflict or replace real conversations. It just creates a safer way to see if the concern you’re holding… is shared. I’m honestly curious, does this feel useful? Or is this overthinking something that should just be said directly?
Would love your thoughts.
