Sections:Leadership Insight
What does it mean to be more spiritual as a leader? To me, it starts by recognizing that there is a power greater then myself to which I am very deeply connected. Then, it means intentionally doing something to tap into that greater power to help me lead people to better outcomes. How each of us does this, I think, is unique to us and our circumstances, but we all seem to benefit from fresh ways to stay mindful of the core idea.
One ANE Leader says this: "Under pressure, I seem to think leadership is about controlling people. Yet I do know deep-down that putting them before me will deliver far better results. ANE's laminated card gets my thinking right whenever my job triggers this over-controlling style."
Another says this: "People at work drive me crazy, especially my boss who is totally unfocused. I expect her to be like me so I start wanting to modify her. How futile is that! ANE's tools are helping me to learn flexibility. Simply seeing these as good people, possibly in the wrong job, settles me down fast."
What works for you? What helps you get to the right balance?
However you answer this question, try sharing your answer with someone this week. It multiplies its effect.
