Which leadership mistakes are you making?
Are you making any (or many) of the leadership mistakes? These are the 7 biggest ones I see, read on to see which you resonate with - and what to do about them
1) Being somebody else's version of a leader. Maybe it's what your parents told you a 'boss' looked like, maybe you're trying to emulate your first manager. Whoever it is, it's like wearing somebody else's underwear - might look pretty but it doesn't fit quite right
2) You've lost your mojo. You're so stressed and overwhelmed, you've lost faith in your ability to lead.
3) You're diluted. You've read all the leadership books, listened to the podcasts and joined the training. And your resulting style is a mishmashed hash of everybody else's wisdom. You're confusing yourself, never mind your team.
4) Stories are holding you back. Previous bad feedback, whether right at the start of your career or more recently, is stinging in your ear. Maybe you were told you were too aggressive, or too bossy, or too emotional or too friendly? Whatever it was, it's kept you from shining as brightly as you could be.
5) You're stuck as peacemaker. Maybe you've got strong peers, or a strong boss who manages through conflict and drowns you out? So you get thrust into the role of peacemaker and conflict resolution, and end up feeling martyred and frustrated when you want to have IMPACT
6) You're a swan. Your To-Do list is massive, your calendar is back-to-back, you're overworked and stretched thin as paper. You're swimming so hard to stay afloat, and self-development is WAY down your list. You're in survival mode, and you know a crash is coming, but as long as it's not today, eh?
7) You're a victim of your own success. You're a brilliant leader. You've grown a great team, are well-respected and got fantastic recognition for your success. BUT you don't recognise yourself anymore. You feel like a caricature of yourself. You've been so busy delivering on who you're expected to be, you've forgotten the truth of who you are.
