The Darkside of Elite

New Series ALERT: For now, let’s call it Joe Vs Pro. Jack is highly trained and spent his Navy SEAL career around elite leadership and culture. For those of us who aren’t trained and are interested in personal growth or growth mindset, let’s pick his brain. Today’s topic is ACCOUNTABILITY.

 

“We can see commonalities with great organizations and leaders. The strongest leaders I see are the ones who know they don’t know everything.

They surround themselves with people who think differently than they do and are who are strong where they aren’t. So in a sense, they’re using this tree of people to provide information to make decisions.

 

Strong leadership understands they’re not the smartest person, but they also are very confident in knowing what their power structure is, which means they know that the responsibility is theirs.

 

If the mission or project is a success they are smart enough to know it was everybody.  If it goes bad, they have the moral-ethical courage to own it.”

“Being a special needs parent, the thing you’re trying to get away from is bitterness. Sadness is natural, anger is natural, you feel it and deal with it. If you leave it all in place, or you ignore it and you don’t address it kind of the scaffolding that builds around you is bitterness. You get kind of frozen in something that looks like I’m permanently angry, permanently sad and I’m wallowing in the unfairness of it all. Gratitude and bitterness, really struggle to occupy the same space at the same time. Like it’s just, it’s just hard. They’re mutually exclusive thought patterns. So if you force gratitude in there, force it, force it every day, force it as many times as you can keep the bitterness away.”

Leslie Koenig MD,

“I’m 20 minutes away from walking my best friend down the aisle and I get the call from my boss. I have to go into quarantine immediately because a patient I was with was diagnosed with coronavirus.”

After 12 years as an emergency doctor, Leslie has seen a thing or two about stress. When deployed to Afghanistan she witnessed it there also, in the most extreme environments with the highest trained warrior in history. Leslie had to learn a lot of quick ways to guide patients through their worst experiences, through the fear to a place of stability.
