Leaders: Learn to be direct in addressing your teams.

Leaders can raise awareness of the quality of their thinking by using these three ways.

Identify a place you’re feeling stuck. What would it look like to go for the win-win?

Eliciting a fear response inherently means you’re not getting the best from your team members.

Every team gets stuck, but with the right support, they don't have to stay there.

A high performing team says: We work through disagreements because we're committed to our vision for the difference we're working to make

Be careful not to confuse lack of alignment with lack of trust.

Your role as a leader is to learn these preferences and model the best approach based on the context.

You must do your inner work to maintain groundedness, hope, and clarity.

Experience is a layer of wisdom and nuance that underpins your leadership messaging.
