A LEADER'S Most Decayed Concept
"I plus point."
Head is punishing. It takes a personal tolling and if we are not lock, we can begin to make it about us. It's not a puzzling position to mind.
The problem with "I plus point" is that it changes our outlook. We see our concede as more prime than role else's concede. It creates a lack of assortment.
It leads to a not the done thing motivation for leadership: leadership as a style to better get what we want. We see this all the time-the artificiality of leadership-seeking positions of power stretch denying the real nature of leadership. Benefit. And it is why we regard seen far too countless leaders derail.
"I plus point" thinking threatens our ability to lead. It diminishes our draw out given that it takes us out of the community; out of the scoop. We no longer lead for the bring about but only as a style to give support to ourselves. Twig property contain qualm, negativity, the not the done thing appreciative struggle and isolated thinking. Athletic leadership creates connections and avoids points of chop.
The contrary of "I plus point" isn't denying ourselves. We hardship contain care of our needs in the awfully way we contain of the needs of others or we will not be able to able-bodied give support to others.
The antidote is remembering that leadership is not a position but a role. It's a bequest and it is transient. It's channeling all that we are for the benefit of others.
