Leadership educator & learning fanatic
In the new world of work, the promise of inexperience is what bridges the gap created
by the curse of experience — ignite it.
Insight #1
Insight #2
The critical skill of this century is not what you hold in your head, but your ability to tap
into and access what other people know.
Insight #3
If you knew that your best learning takes place when your expectations are being violated,
would you live on the edge more often?
Insight #4
It’s the progressive leader who lives in the duality of expectation. While she
demands high expectations, she knows that mistakes are inevitable.
Insight #5
An unencumbered mind breaks the shackles of experience. Here are three ways to
increase your mental capacity to see, explore and discover:
• Ask Naive Questions - Ask the basic questions that simplify and clarify• Wipe the Slate - Get a fresh start
• Let Go of the Monkey Trap - Release your resources
Insight #6
Great leaders use their own intelligence to heighten the intelligence of others
by asking these questions:
• How does a lack of experience free me to rise beyond the current state?
• How do mastery and success anchor us in place?
Insight #7
While the danger of experience is comfort and complacency, it’s the size of the challenge that
will ignite my level of job satisfaction.
Insight #8
Leaders who are fluid know when to lead and when to follow, for they know that the critical
skill is to mobilize human resources.
Insight #9
If you’re doing the same things the same way you’ve always done them, rekindle your sense
of wonder with one of these experiments:
• Try to get fired - Instead of playing it safe, just play.
• Throw away your notes - Toss out your best practices and develop new practices
• Sure with the amateurs - Spend time with the amateurs and the young at heart
Insight #10
Change maybe difficult, but it’s irrelevance that will be crippling.
