My guess is that you know well the stomach churning anxiety as you anticipate the start of the work week. I do. Most of the time that panic comes not from fear of work to be done. It comes from the dysfunctional interpersonal challenges you must mitigate as a leader.
One of the hardest situations I have encountered is when I work with people leaders who are unaware that their leadership habits are causing the majority of the problems they struggle with. It is worse when they not only lack awareness but also believe they are good people leaders.
Objective self-awareness is possible to teach, but it is only possible if people are willing to learn. I would love to know if any of you have experienced this. If so, what you did about it?
