Leadership Book Recommendation: The Element by Ken Robinson

Two Questions

Do you appreciate unexpected opportunities?

Life is truly about experiences, and as leaders, we need to embrace and grow through these opportunities. No matter how much time and planning we invest, it is impossible to create a linear, step-by-step plan that will lead us directly to our personal and professional goals. While ambition and goal setting are important, they don’t guarantee your plan will work out as imagined. Every leader is different, and so is their journey. Setbacks, disappointments, and frustrations are inevitable. Without challenges, how would we grow and improve?

Take time to appreciate the twists, turns, and surprises in your leadership journey. Each unexpected event or obstacle is an opportunity to learn and adapt.

Are you a creative problem solver?

As a leader, how do you solve problems? Do you see the problem-solving process as just a way to quickly find a temporary solution before moving on to the next issue? Or do you take the time to view the situation through creativity and innovation?

What happens when we begin to see obstacles as opportunities? Imagine the potential growth and development that emerge from this mindset shift. Viewing challenges as chances to innovate can lead to more effective and impactful solutions, creating a culture of continuous improvement and trust throughout your organization.

Two Thoughts

Impact others.

The power of NOT being an “expert”.
