I realize that most hard-driving managers and executives have been
socialized to believe they cannot admit vulnerability to themselves or
others. I would urge you to get past this misconception and realize
that such admissions will enhance your productivity and career. So,
consider:
Do you regret any significant decisions you've made about
your career? If you had to do it over again, would you do it
differently?
Have there been times when you treated your people unfairly?
When you failed to listen and learn and instead directed and
dictated?
Do you feel you've been working at peak capacity in recent
years? If not, why not?
Are you unwilling to admit your mistakes to your direct reports?
To your bosses? To your colleagues?
Have you asked anyone for help recently? Have you admitted
you didn't know something and needed to learn it? Have you
asked for coaching?
If you were to be completely honest with your boss and knew
that there would be no negative repercussions, what secret
fear or anxiety would you admit to him?
Do you believe that you're in the right job, in the right group,
and in the right organization? Or do you feel there's a mismatch
between where you are now and what you want to
accomplish
Ginger Lewman on 08 Nov 08This is a great potential fundraiser site for yourself or your local non-profit. Say, a HS band/team/church wants to raise cash? Sign up to receive advert texts (must be 13yo) from 5¢ to $1 each. Every $25 raised, you get a check cut for yourself! You can donate the cash to your organization, OR to your own bank!! This is AWESOME if you have an unlimited texting plan, and great even if you don't! Use KGTC for your invite code!
