After more than a decade serving leaders at all levels, I've decided to move on...to focus only on senior leaders - directors, C-suite executives and their direct reports.
Why? Because unless the senior leaders go first and embed better knowledge into their own fully developed beliefs - so that they behave in accordance with the better knowledge, then the status quo remains unchanged and that is decidely unremarkable.
Working with mid-level and senior management (as opposed to leaders) without the full support and modelling required of senior leaders, then good people leave and the rest revert.
Senior leaders must not only possess life and business skills, attitudinal competence and effective leadership behaviour. They must also harness unconventional wisdom and address uncomfortable truths. Anything less is merely keeping the status quo, and those leaders are forgettable.
So stand by, we are moving on to embrace ways of harnessing the unconventional wisdom and addressing uncomfortable truths.
What are the pearls of uncoventional wisdom in your organisation; and what are the uncomfortable truths that must be faced? For therin lies your legacy - you either made a real difference or you just kept the status quo.
Let me know your thoughts.
Until next time.
