What’s your leadership EBITDA?
What’s your Experience Beyond Invisibility, Tolerances, Decisions & Avoidance?
This is the EBITDA I’ve found to comprise the key areas that emerge for leaders looking to have significant impact, communications that land and accelerate career growth.
Why do we enjoy travelling, watching the footy live, visiting a day spa or paying $7 for just one scoop of pistachio gelato? Because we want a positive experience.
What’s your current experience of being a leader? If it’s not quite where you’d like it, then it’s time to for a leadership EBITDA audit.
Here’s a helicopter view:
Invisibility: You resist giving your perspective because it may challenge those in power. You’re slow to share something of merit. Your body language is closed and contracted in high-stakes rooms.
Tolerances: Where do you need to start saying a hard ‘no’? (with respect). No to late night work-related emails and texts. No to being passed over.
Decisions: We don’t have as many problems as we do decisions to be made. What’s the decision you’ve been creatively dodging that you could make today? Right or wrong, you’ll learn. What’s more you can adjust because you’re finally in motion.
Avoidance: This is actually a stream of behaviours resulting from an upstream belief about your capability. What belief are you holding about yourself that is no longer true? Who would you be without it?
You’ve worked extremely hard and diligently to be where you are. To continue having greater leadership experiences, go inwards first. It’s the road less travelled but more resourceful.
If you want to tackle this kind of interference head on, I’m here. This is the work of Black Belt Leadership. And all black belts know the true opponent is within. Let’s face yours together.
