LEADERS MAINTAIN RESILIENCE IN THE FACE OF COMPLEX PROBLEMS BECAUSE THEY DO HARD THINGS

“Leaders who tackle complex issues in business, relationships and their own personal growth must learn to become and remain resilient. The most important skill one must master as a resilient leader is the willingness and discipline to DO HARD THINGS. Make hard choices, take hard risks, build hardened attitudes, reinforce and stand firm on core values… now that’s hard. True success is much like investing in this way. Short term gains tend to fade, long term gains require short term sacrifice.” J Loren Norris

HOW LEADERS CREATE GENUINE CONNECTIONS

“Building relationships requires commitment, intentionality and a great deal of compassion. Leaders who try to manage and manipulate the outcomes of every relationship for their own gain will find themselves very lonely at the top. Leaders who learn to nurture, encourage, promote and support those around them will become magnetic in their ever growing spheres of influence. Service leads to access - access to relationship - relationship to opportunity. If those get out of order of priority leadership can become a disaster.” J Loren Norris

HOW TO LEAD FROM THE MIDDLE

“The way to the top as a leader can be a veritable mine field. One wrong move, one unacceptable comment, one failed relationship and you’re cancelled. The ability to be promoted, advanced, recognized or even accepted could come to an abrupt halt. In many large companies and institutions the culture has become simply toxic. There are programs, departments, alphabet initiatives to level the playing field and yet navigating ‘the playing field’ is much more like roller blading on a tilt-a-whirl, unstable and unpredictable. Leading from the middle requires a new skill set along with massive amounts of effort and intentionality.”

LEADERS APPROACH TRANSITION WITH CAREFUL EXCITEMENT

“Change is an inevitable part of life. Every living being, individual, organization or team must evolve to survive. Not all change is good, but change is to be expected. Some transitions are unavoidable but welcome, some are unpredictable but rewarding, some are dreaded from the first signs. Politics and policies might the origin of transition. New market conditions, changes in economies, evolution of culture can all bring transformation which a leader must navigate. Knowing which direction to pivot, when to make the move, how to land, these are the purview of the leader. Huge risks, high stakes, exhausting stress can bring the best team to the brink. The leader will be tested in this season. The vision will be tested. The team will be tested. Hold on to values, principles, priorities and purpose in the face of change and you will transition well .”

LEADERS ARE EXPECTED TO CHALLENGE THE WAY OTHERS THINK

“Leaders are critical thinkers. There is no idle mind in a leader. When the thoughts which dominate the mind of a leader are trapped in the head of the leader no one benefits. Whether held back because of convention or conviction those thoughts are missed critically. Take time as a leader share your thoughts, review your thoughts, challenge your thoughts and grow your thoughts. Make sure your thoughts are focused on your purpose and your priorities. Make sure your team is applying those thoughts to the purposes and priorities you have assigned to them.”
