Are you really giving it a go?

Steve Radcliffe Portrait

I was about to start the third FED session with a group who had loved the first two sessions 4 and 8 weeks earlier and I thought I’d ask three questions to encourage their reflection and conversation. Here are the questions. What are your answers?

The first question is: On a scale of nought to ten, how well are you practising and living the leadership ideas you have explored?

Second: What is the score you’d like to be at?

And the third: What is the gap?

If the gap is 1, well done, you’re in pretty good shape.
If it’s 2, I’m sure you can find a way to reduce this by one at least.
If it’s 3 or more, what’s happening? Time to call in your Support Team. Have a conversation with someone.

If you have a gap in your scores, how are you holding yourself back and what steps can you take to spend more of your time being the leader and person you want to be?
