One parenting idea that also applies to leadership:
Connection → Feeling safe → Better behavior
Whether with children or teams, people rarely learn well when they feel judged or disconnected.
Sometimes the relationship is the real foundation for change.

I’m humbled to share a major pivot point in my journey. 🍝💻💥

Today, I spilled spaghetti all over my laptop, resulting in a total hardware failure. While some might see a mess, I see a powerful lesson in resilience and the fragility of our digital infrastructure.

This experience says a lot about our society: we are often one "noodle" away from a complete system collapse. It’s a reminder to always have a disaster recovery plan, embrace the unexpected, and never stop hungry for growth (or pasta).

How are you future-proofing your workflow today? Let’s connect and discuss. 🚀

Daily Inspiration: "Invincibility is a myth" - Futurist Jim Carroll

A belief in invincibility is often the start of defeat. And in all truth, once you start to think you are invincible - you probably aren’t! You might think that you are on top of the world; that nothing bad can happen; that everything will be perfect; and then, it can all come crashing down in an instant.

Often, with spectacular results.

Here are some facts:

- believing you're invincible invites vulnerability

- that vulnerability happens because you become blind to reality

- the resulting overconfidence, unchecked, will usually lead to failure

- that's because it's when you are feeling invincible that reality will swoop in

- your actual invincibility fades over time, so it's a mindset of caution that can better sustain success

The fact is, a mindset of Invincibility is often the start of defeat!
Organizations and the people within them can easily develop an attitude of invincibility when things are great. Success after success develops a culture of complacency, and inevitably, failure becomes the result when least expected. That's because a mindset of invincibility is a barrier that blocks insight.

Often, this culture of invincibility develops at the top and then permeates throughout the organization. An attitude of invincibility at the leadership level is often the biggest challenge that an organization can face because it’s easy for someone at the top to think that everything is guaranteed. That nothing will topple them.

Their ego gets in the way; their desire for praise becomes a more important goal than any real sort of strategy.

From a personal perspective, feelings of being invincible are dangerous and can wreak havoc on your overall goals and mindset. You start to believe that you have everything under control, which makes you more susceptible to failure.

Invincibility? Watch for it, be wary of it, and always be on your guard - nothing is ever guaranteed.

Daily Inspiration: "The euphoria of winning is often soon offset by the reality of achieving!" - Futurist Jim Carroll

Do you remember that phrase, "underpromise and overdeliver." It's a useful mindset for achieving goals!

But what happens if you "overpromise and underdeliver" - does that work?

Nope.

Lots of folks are soon to find that out.

Remember the Fyre Festival? Awesome times! The reality? It was so underdelivered that it became the subject of not one, but two full-length documentaries - including one called "Fyre: The Greatest Party that Never Happened."

Massive promises never delivered. Oops. The founder went to jail.
So - to that point - a lot of people now expect things to suddenly get massively better in the next little while because, well, all the problems will be fixed.

Here's the thing - it's going to be tough to improve on an economy that is already firing on all cylinders. It's going to be difficult to bring back entire industries - think about the automotive sector - that have not already made the investments that are necessary to get to the future. It's going to be difficult to provide jobs that require newly emerging skills if you haven't done the retraining necessary with people to fill those jobs. It's not going to be easy to have a successful economy that is massively reliant on migrant labor if you are going to try to terrorize those people.  It's going to be tough to take away healthcare and old age security from folks when the very people who voted for come to realize that you were talking about taking away their healthcare and old age security! It's going to be difficult to fire millions of federal workers when people suddenly come to realize how those workers make things function.

Oops. Fun times ahead.

Here's the thing about overpromising - as soon as it becomes apparent that all you can do is underdeliver, mindsets move.

When a person doesn’t have gratitude, something is missing in his or her humanity. A person can almost be defined by his or her attitude toward gratitude. - (Elie Wiesel)

Are we defined by our attitude toward gratitude? Elie Wiesel believed so. Share a moment when gratitude made a difference in your life.

#LeadershipLessons A boss is not a saviour; with all the power you have, you cannot fix every problem and issue colleagues raise to you, nor should you try to fix everything. Catch yourself in the “fixer mindset”. In some circumstances, keep listening, shush the know-all-fixer voice in your head. Before the conversation ends, remember to ask the important question “What can I do to help you?” - but the stress is on the second half - to “help you”, to “support you doing it”… not the first half.

Searching is half the fun: life is much more manageable when thought of as a scavenger hunt as opposed to a surprise party. - (Jimmy Buffett)

Life's treasures aren't just handed to us; they're scattered, waiting to be found. As leaders, the joy is in the hunt, the pursuit, and the discovery. Let's relish the scavenger hunt today. Let's keep searching...

#leadership #lifelonglearning #TodayMatters #JimmyBuffett #LeadershipLessons #EmbraceTheJourney

#LeadershipLessons - just want to leave a reminder for myself: when a subordinate come to talk to me about a situation, don’t forget to ask “what can I do to help you?” or “what do you think I can do to help?” Especially before closing the conversation, this can be a useful prompt.

#LeadershipLessons : be aware that your #communicationskill is NEVER as good as you think. If you self-rate a 8 out of 10 skill-level, in real life you probably get your messages clearly articulated 50% of the time; and the chance of your “audience” correctly receiving your messages Is probably <20%.
Furthermore, articulation is only one of the multiple components of #communications. Another KEY skill is whether you can understand the perspectives of your audience.

I had the opportunity to speak to Andy Ellis, former CSO of Akamai, about his new book "1% Leadership" and I cannot wait to read it!

In it Andy breaks the core lessons in leadership into small bite size pieces that are easily digestible for anyone who is in Leadership or wants to be there. If you're interested in moving into leadership or becoming a better leader, be sure to check it out!
