How do you deal with taking on new #leadership responsibilities? Do you default to what you have always done or do you strive to learn and improve as a leader? Listened to an interesting podcast with Professor Herminia Ibarra of the London Business School discussing #authenticity in leadership and what that really means. It’s not about doing the same thing that got you to your new leadership role - it’s about striving for a future self that is more effective as a leader, more fulfilled as a person and able to have a higher impact than before. Shifting into a new leadership role is about finding a balance between performance and learning - if you are not pushing the boundaries and making mistakes, you are not learning anything new (which is something I learned as a scientist decades ago). How do you transition into a new leadership role and do you simply rely on what got you there or do you push the boundaries and try new things? https://lnkd.in/g4Dt75x8
