Rebuilding trust in your team
Trust is a leader’s most valuable asset. Building it takes time but losing it can happen in an instant. A broken promise, a lapse in judgment, or a careless email can quickly erode trust. When trust is broken, your response is crucial. Be ready to repair and rebuild.
The illusion of effortlessness
We like performance that looks effortless. Truth is that top performers work hard. They’ve evaluated more business plans, played more scales, sunk more layups, or painted more canvases than the rest of us. They’ve honed their skills through intentional learning and deliberate practice.
A Mind to Grow
Attitude matters. A lot. If you think you can improve with hard work, you can. If you believe performance is limited by talent or physical characteristics, it is. Both are true. Talent matters. Anatomy makes a difference. But with the right attitude, you can overcome the limits of natural ability.
Why Reflection Is Important
Reflection can help us improve performance through learning while at the same time increasing our sense of well-being. Reflection allows us to appreciate positive experiences. From schoolrooms to boardrooms, reflection is essential for learning, helping us to give meaning to our experience, learn from mistakes and increase purpose-driven action.
