We are our worst enemies. Our human tendencies - to procrastinate on problems, avoid change, be undisciplined, listen to our egos, and cast blame - get us into trouble, worsening problems and sowing the seeds of failure. But we're not alone in the struggle to get out of our way. At Echelon Front, we've worked with over 1,600 companies, and leaders and teams everywhere have the same weaknesses. But through brutally honest self-assessments and the application of Extreme Ownership, we can adopt mindsets that will lead us to victory. 📍 Rather than hoping problems will solve themselves, we should be biased toward action and default aggressive in solving them. 📍 We may resist change, but our organizations will not survive unless we innovate and adapt. 📍 If you want the freedom to excel at the highest level possible, you must have discipline. 📍 Listen to our ego will only let it get out of control. Instead, focus on humility, the most important attribute of a leader. 📍 Don't cast blame, point fingers, and make excuses. If you don't take Extreme Ownership, the problem will persist. These solutions sound simple, but they're not easy. Our Extreme Ownership Academy is designed to correct our bad habits and replace them with these leadership mindsets. Thanks to Leif Babin and Dave Berke for helping us get out of our way on today's free live session.

In any organization, team or company, culture is going to develop whether you influence it or not. It could be a toxic culture where coworkers refuse to work together and constantly blame one another when things go wrong. It could be a negative culture, where people constantly bad mouth the organization in private and public. Or it could be a culture of mediocre performance where people simply clock in to work, leave as soon as possible, and never go the extra mile to accomplish the mission and win. To create a winning culture inside your organization, you have to proactively shape the culture in the right direction. That way, you can be part of a team that is determined to win, solves problems, overcomes obstacles, and makes things happen to accomplish the strategic goals. This doesn't just happen by itself. You have to work to build a winning culture. First, set the example. You must exemplify the culture you wish to set for everyone else. But if you don't meet the standard, don't exepct anyone else to either. Second create realistic training programs that prepare you and your team to face and successfully overcome the challenges and obstacles you will in face in the real world. Third, you must ensure that everyone on the team understands the purpose, goal, and end-state so that they can lead at every level, and move the team forward in a positive direction toward the goal. When you set the example, prepare the team to face realistic challenges, and empower your people to overcome obstacles, solve problems, and lead, you will create the culture necessary for your team to win. That’s how you build a winning culture. Now, GET AFTER IT. Echelon Front #leadership #culture #winningteam

Management and leadership are not synonyms. Managers are responsible for overseeing their team, ensuring organization, and getting the job done. However, leaders inspire and influence their team to work together to achieve common goals. In order to be a good manager, you must be a good leader.

How well do you build relationships? Codey Gandy outlines the ultimate test of Cover & Move.
How often do you support the people who support you? Both at work and at home, nearly all of us have someone who supports us. This may be a subordinate who helps you manage projects, or your spouse who helps raise your kids. Often, we abuse this give-and-take, falling into the habit of only taking their support. This person ends up only supporting us because they have to, not because they want to. People will only do the bare minimum of work if you deem yourself entitled to their support. But you can do it the right way. When you support the people who support you and give as much – or even more -- than they give you, you’ll foster loyalty with people who are eager to support you. They will follow your lead, not because you asked, but because they trust you are there to support them too. This relationship is the ultimate test to see how well you cover and move. When leaders are team players, they do not need to ask for support – it’s readily given.

Detachment is a Superpower. Quite the catchphrase, right? As Echelon Front instructors teaching the principles of Extreme Ownership, we don’t simply say “detachment is important” or “you should detach” to leaders, despite being absolutely true. We use the catchphrase intentionally. Being detached is often the decisive competitive edge a leader employs to win. We analyze the data, make iterative decisions, and track progress, all of which are events on a project timeline that we harbor feelings about. We grow impatient and anxious and develop biases. Detaching from those feelings - or emotions - will separate us from our competitors. It is a leader’s superpower. We are hardwired to be emotional about the problems in our world that bother us. The difference between the leader who solves that problem and the one who is stumped by it is their ability to leverage the superpower of detachment.

When emotions run high, it’s easy to get caught up in the heat of the moment. Rather than focusing on or ignoring your feelings, leaders should pause, step back to gain perspective, and observe the situation objectively. Detachment is a powerful tool that allows us to assess the reality of the situation and make decisions based on logic rather than impulse.
