The ONE Activity That Will Help You Thrive In Your Role
In this episode, I dive deep into the intricacies of executive-level and critical thinking and how it influences daily decision-making, organizational alignment, and individual growth.
I begin with a powerful question, "Do you feel guilty allocating time for reflective thinking with a demanding schedule?" and illustrate this through a real-life example and explore how aspiring leaders – like executives – can leverage this principle to think, behave, and inspire confidence.
Next, I introduce the concept of Executive Level Thinking and its significance for success in executive roles. This type of thinking requires a holistic viewpoint that considers the organization, industry, and competition from both short-term and long-term perspectives. Executive-level thinking breaks down into three components: visionary & strategic, vertical, and horizontal. Each plays a crucial role in creating a comprehensive understanding of the business picture and driving well-informed decisions.
Secondly, I introduce critical thinking, a cornerstone of executive decision-making that involves diagnosing problems or opportunities thoroughly, considering all perspectives, and differentiating between facts, assumptions, and speculations.
