Lead with humility and selfawareness from "summary" of Own the Room by Amy Jen Su,Muriel Maignan Wilkins
At the heart of effective leadership lies the ability to lead with humility and self-awareness. This means approaching leadership with a mindset that is open, curious, and willing to learn from others. When you lead with humility, you are able to acknowledge your own limitations and weaknesses, and to recognize that you do not have all the answers. This allows you to be more open to feedback and to seek out different perspectives. Self-awareness is closely linked to humility, as it involves having a clear understanding of your own strengths, weaknesses, and blind spots. When you are self-aware, you are able to recognize how your actions and behaviors impact those around you, and to adjust your approach accordingly. This is crucial for effective leadership, as it enables you to better understand and connect with others, and to build strong relationships based on trust and respect. Leading with humility and self-awareness also means being able to admit when you are wrong, and to take responsibility for your mistakes. This is not a sign of weakness, but rather a sign of strength and integrity. By owning up to your errors and learning from them, you demonstrate that you are committed to personal growth and development, and that you are willing to do what it takes to improve as a leader.- Leading with humility and self-awareness is about putting the needs of others before your own ego. It is about recognizing that leadership is not about having all the answers, but rather about empowering others to find their own solutions. By approaching leadership with humility and self-awareness, you create a culture of trust, collaboration, and continuous learning that enables both you and your team to thrive.
