Getting Back on Track: Listening to Your Internal Dialogue and Recognizing the Signs of Disconnect
Manage episode 398607394 series 2866276
Shandel and Melanie discuss the signs and dangers of falling into an "unhealthy cycle of misery" as a leader. They explore how fear, insecurity, and a lack of humility can disconnect leaders from their values and damage relationships with their team. However, they emphasize that recognizing when you've gone off track is the first step to getting back to purposeful, values-aligned growth.
Key Takeaways:
- Pay attention to your internal dialogue, as it can provide insights into where you are in your leadership growth and when you may have fallen into a "Cycle of Misery."
- Don't be too hard on yourself if you recognize unhealthy patterns - the important thing is to take responsibility and get back on track as quickly as possible.
- Look out for signs like a lack of humility, fear of being wrong, blaming others, and disconnect from feedback from your team. These can indicate a disconnect from your values.
- Avoid being too busy "doing stuff" instead of prioritizing what really matters. Reframe excuses around not having time.
- Be open to pruning less effective practices, even ones you've "always done," rather than doubling down on the past.
- Personal stories can help identify unconscious patterns so you don't justify bad behaviors for the sake of success alone.
