You are a highly successful leader and executive with an excellent track record. You've done well for yourself. Yet something is amiss as of late. You're not taking on any new leadership roles and responsibilities. You're feeling left out of the inner circle conversations at work. You're managing your team with a little less enthusiasm or effectiveness than before and for the first time in a while, you are beginning to have doubts about the future of your leadership career. You can't see what you are doing wrong, but you know that it is hurting your career. What if what you can't see about yourself is blocking your path to the next level of leadership and advancement? There is a term for this. It is called a blind spot. In good times, it is an annoyance, and in tough times, it can be fatal to your career. Every stage of a leadership career tests you on new levels of skills and abilities. How well do you connect with people? How accurately do you manage the perception of others and gain their trust? How powerfully do you lead through a crisis? How quickly do you adapt and respond to changing circumstances? Prepare yourself for that new level of executive leadership by knowing the top 10 blind spots that sabotage the highly successful executive's career.
