There’s a price tag to playing it safe that compounds quietly in the background while you wait for the “right moment.” In her recent Forbes article, leadership keynote speaker Dr. Margie Warrell explores the cost of letting caution override courage and action. 

It might feel easier to avoid speaking up, taking calculated risks, or championing new ideas—but holding back doesn’t just delay progress: it limits opportunity, stifles innovation, and erodes confidence.

Margie encourages leaders and teams to ask: what might we be losing by staying silent, by staying put? Because while safety can feel comfortable, the true cost is often in what we don’t attempt—not what we risk.
