Do you spend time worrying about the economy? Or whether AI will hollow out your role?
A lot of leaders burn their energy on things that are completely outside of their control, while ignoring the things they actually can influence.
Resilience is an essential leadership trait, and the ultimate expression of resilience is grace under pressure.
You don’t get there just by sucking it up and putting your game face on. It starts with knowing what you can control and what you can’t, and believing that you can control your environment (at least to some extent).
In this episode, I explain the locus of control: a foundational element of all genuinely resilient people; I let you in on a slightly irrational belief that keeps me steady when the chips are down; I give you three practical steps to shift towards an internal locus of control; and I finish with a few ideas for how to bring your team with you.
