3 surprising steps toward accountable leadership*:

#1. See yourself through your own eyes.

Growth begins when you see yourself, not until. Leaders who lack self awareness believe others need to change, they don’t. A sure sign that you’re out of touch is expecting others to take responsibility while letting yourself off the hook.

Lack of self awareness results in blaming behaviors. Blame creates frustration,  because you wrongly believe others are the solution to issues you should address.

#2. See yourself through the eyes of others.

Leaders develop when they appreciate the impact of their behaviors on others.

#3. Meet the standards of others.

  • Own mistakes and commit to make them right.
  • Provide credible performance in the eyes of others.

Sean said, “We tend to meet standards that we think are important. What we have to remember is that we are credible in other people’s eyes. … Seek out, understand, and try to meet the standards of others.”
