“Wir haben uns gewaltig vergaloppiert” – Leitung & Management
Reif für die Intensivstation? Um die Führungskultur steht es nicht zum Besten – Stattdessen blüht eine Kultur der Mitteilungen hinter vorgehaltener Hand
Die Aktualität der drei Affen aus dem alten Japan ist ungebrochen: nichts sehen, nichts hören, nichts sagen. Insbesondere Letzteres vor versammelter Mannschaft besser nicht. Und so blüht die Kultur der Informationen und Mitteilungen hinter vorgehaltener Hand. Allenthalben wird geraunt: “Aber bitte, das ist nur für Ihre Ohren bestimmt! Auf keinen Fall im Zusammenhang mit meinem Namen verwenden.” ….. “Wir haben uns gewaltig vergaloppiert” – Leitung & Management – derStandard.at › Karriere

Happy New Year!
In this world everyone searches for happiness outside, but nobody understands their true self inside.

You Can’t Lead In Fear
Fear ruins more bright lives than you might imagine. Each of us, by virtue of our very human nature, has the potential to Lead Without Title and achieve great things that elevate everyone around us by our model of possibility. But the chattering voice of fear in our heads stops us from playing big.
A little while back I had the chance to spend 3 weeks in New Zealand. And just before I returned home, I had the opportunity to go heli-skiing. Yes, this is where a helicopter drops you off at the top of a mountain, and you ski down.
The experience was challenging, exhilarating and full of rich lessons for growth. Here are some of them, that we can apply to business and life:
1. You Don’t Grow In Normal
All I mean by this is that if you stay within your comfort zone, you don’t grow. But if you instead stretch and face fear head on by going to your limits, you’ll discover your limits will grow.

2. You Don’t Know Until You TryIt would have been easy to refuse the chance to heli-ski. I could have made a thousand excuses. But Leaders Without a Title recognize good opportunities. So I seized it. And because I tried heli-skiing, I not only grew as a skier, I added another experience to my life that will shape all I do.
3. On the Other Side of Your Fears You’ll Find Your Confidence
By doing what we’re afraid to do because it’s beyond our comfort zone, we grow in confidence. The increased confidence I have as a skier because I skied a new peak will translate to increased confidence as an entrepreneur and as a human being.

4. Life’s Short So Get In The Game
A rich life is one made up of many rich adventures. Don’t miss out on enjoying as many as you can.
