If you aspire to lead, a question:
Do you need evidence everything is going to be “okay” before you function with confidence? Or do you function with confidence . . . as a mechanism to ensuring everything turns out alright?
It’s impossible to guide others through adversity if you can’t self-manage yourself when under pressure. (Yet many attempt this feat daily.)
You know it when you see it: A person walks in the room, with crisis swirling about them, yet they remain at ease. Their actions tell the world: I’ve been here before and I know what to do.
Critics will argue, “But you haven’t been here prior, because this sort of crisis has never occurred!”
(Translation: Panic!)
Laugh at them. You have experienced predicaments before. You know that:
– You deliver value to others by living your values.
– By staying focused, the crisis at hand will birth a new solution.
– You’re on a team that is stronger than the obstacle. (Therefore, activate the team.)
You are the person in demand.
