Seek out the OPPORTUNITY to OBSERVE
Take OWNERSHIP for the OBSTACLES
Thank people for their OPENNESS
These words combined, coincidentally all beginning with ‘O’', sounds like Leadership!
Let’s take a closer look:
OBSERVE
Building a portfolio of data about people is achieved by OBSERVING what they do, say, how they interact and the impact they have on others. This enables adapting your approach and an opportunity for feedback.
OPPORTUNITY
Observation uncovers OPPORTUNITIES to learn, grow, experiment and change. You have an opportunity right now to shift, operate differently & lead the change.
OBSTACLES
Viewing your challenges, problems & concerns as OBSTACLES, enables you to plan, map & chart a new path. Re-frame how you see the situation & how you aim to solve your OBSTACLE with your solution.
OWNERSHIP
Self-leadership is about your OWNERSHIP; being proud of our accomplishments & an owner of our failures.
OPENNESS
Believing it’s important to tell it as it is, is a key strength; being honest without sugar coating the facts. Being OPEN & quick with information appeases uncertain minds, fosters resilience & ensures a feeling of being involved.
