Food 4 Thought Podcast

Optimism is a critical component of resilience, but it can be dangerous if it’s not balanced as we have recently seen in UK politics. If you want to avoid looking delusional and remain alert to emerging factors, you need to navigate the paradox of Vigilant Resilience. 

This means mastering two contradictory traits that, when you get it right, inspire confidence and help you learn fast.  

Check out this 150-second video that explores some useful insights for you to consider. 

Food for Thought: 

❓How well are you balancing the two traits in this paradox? 

❓What are the tendencies of your team members? 

I look forward to seeing your comments below.

Are you being compassionate enough for your people while holding them to account for their performance?  

There is a paradox when it comes to guiding people to be their best. 

Addressing underperformance can trigger a lot of deep emotions and feelings about how we were treated in the past. A wise manager is able to remain mindful of their feelings and sees the benefits of a balanced approach because they care about their people and don’t want to let them fail.  

This 150-second video provides some useful insights for you to consider.

It is also important to know when it’s time to adjust what you are doing or even change direction. 

This 150-second video provides some useful insights about the two traits in the Paradox of Focused Innovation and what you need to get the balance right.

Producing great results requires a high degree of self-motivation but sustaining those results over time requires us to recognise that stress management is not optional, it is essential.   There is a paradox in producing sustained results that requires us to prioritise our health and well-being alongside our performance and results.   

This 150-second video provides some useful insights about the three components of self-motivation and how to avoid burnout.   Food for Thought:

When we need to make a decision, it is very easy to be overwhelmed with information or frustrated that there isn’t enough. 

We can also fall into the trap of seeking to confirm what we already know or confuse our feelings as facts. 

Therefore, it is useful to explore the Paradox of Instinctive Logic so we can achieve better balance, avoid the above and make better decisions.

Good working relationships are becoming more important than ever. 

Many people are choosing to leave their current employment to seek greener pastures and while money can be a reason it is rarely the only one. There is plenty of evidence that people value good working relationships, and the quality of relationships often influences the decision to stay or leave when offered opportunities elsewhere. 

Wise leaders know how to create sustainable relationships by skilfully navigating the paradox of an Equity Mindset and understanding the balance required.  

This 150-second video provides some useful insights to help you get the balance just right.

Communication is tricky and requires balance.  

Some people want and need you to be very direct and to the point, while others want and need you to be diplomatic and respectful.  If we don’t get the balance right we can trigger upset and defensiveness or frustration and confusion. 

Excellent communicators manage to get the balance right by skilfully navigating the paradox of Respectful Candor. This requires carefully balancing the two traits in this paradox to avoid any unintended consequences in your communication with others. 

This 150-second video provides some useful distinctions to help you get the balance just right.
