Learning from your team

Hi again,

I hope you and yours are well.

Today’s story is about shifting perspective and letting the team lead.

An executive I worked with decided to take inspiration directly from her team, making her leadership adaptive and rooted in real-time feedback.

Here’s how she adapted:

• Observed team behaviors to understand their needs rather than assume.
• Asked her team for feedback on her leadership style.
• Adjusted based on her team’s input.

The insights she gained helped her lead in a more responsive and effective way.

Your reflection: Are you letting your team teach you, or do you always feel you need to lead?
