(This post is the fourth in our blog series to give you a sneak peak at The Intentional Leader, our leader development platform for teams and small-medium sized organizations. How would bit-sized wisdom like this serve your team? More details at the bottom.)
It’s often debated where to start with leadership. Many say that leadership starts with vision. While that is important to leadership, I believe leadership starts with a simple intention or choice. In this week’s lesson, I’ll share that intention and a practice to remind you of it each day. (Hint…it is 4 ½ little words).
Write on a sticky-note or 3×5 card, “It’s not about me” and post it in a place where you can see it (i.e. computer monitor, planner). In each interaction this week, before engaging in the conversation, say to yourself, “It’s not about me.”.
