At my talk at the The American Chamber of Commerce of the Philippines, Inc., I explored the idea of #working #fearlessly. Working fearlessly means that we #empower ourselves and become #highagency #professionals, not held back by hesitation nor lack of direction. We achieve this fearless attitude by knowing the boundaries expected by our stakeholders: the industry, clients, our firm, executives, team, owners, direct reports, lenders, equity owners, regulators, community, associates, others - when we know these boundaries, and act #ethically with #integrity, and we work to do what is right and correct for these stakeholders, then we can work fearlessly within those constraints. We can work with a sense of urgency not held back by anything because we know we can explain our actions and why we made our decisions. Of course, #communication with relevant #stakeholders remains a valuable skill and one should always manage expectations. Yet there's no excuse for not being a high agency professional. We #lead first by leading ourselves. Speed is a differentiating factor in the economy today. This is something that I have #coached time and time again with my direct reports and I believe in it strongly because it works. #strategy #strategymadereal #leadership #Philippines
