Over the last few weeks several incidents have occurred and caused me to reflect on the pain of learning. I believe this is why so many people do not truly embrace the desire to LEARN to lead. It requires conscious thought and effort each day and with this greater consciousness comes pain. So much easier to just keep doing what you’ve always done or tinker on the edges.
Learning to lead is so much more than participating in a program, completing some self awareness tools……it about wanting to LEARN. It is about truly being prepared to dive deep inside and check out your limiting mental models….and we all have them! Challenge your assumptions and check out your judgements – and that is tough stuff.
