Each leadership experience - good and bad - gives us our grooves - Jennifer Britton
Today's Sunday quote was inspired by some recent conversations I have been having with new team leaders. We've been talking about the importance of learning from things that work and don't work. Whether we label it resilience or agility, our ability to learn and reposition is critical in today's world of ongoing change, globalization and growth.
I remember vividly an undergrad science project at McGill where we had to painstakingly count the rings on a tree. This was almost 30 years ago and I remember it like it was yesterday. The tree sample I got was more than 150 years old! Just like a tree grows rings for each year of life, as leaders we grow grooves from each experience. If you were to map out your own rings, what stories would they tell? How can you share these learnings with other leaders in your organization?
Have a great Sunday,
Jennifer
