I think we have all met a leader who could not admit a mistake, who blamed a lot, took all the credit, and could not change.
If a leader thinks that admitting a mistake, shortcoming, or ignorance on a subject makes them look like a weak failure, they will strive to hold onto power while people around them are leaving.
The day you started your business or got promoted to manager or leader, you didn’t become all-knowing.
Humility allows you to change, improve and grow – and be a better leader.
I have met many leaders who I have grown a great amount of respect for admitting their shortcomings and many I have lost respect for not being able to. Every day we should let our humility teach us valuable lessons. It is part of being human.
Good morning Larry!!!
Good Morning from Pennsylvania! Allowing myself to face my mistakes was the initiation in to the success club. What suggestions do you all have for keeping the boss accountable?
