Embracing Progress: A Reflection on 2023 and Vision for 2024 by Our Executive Leader. #leadership #reflection #visionaryleader #reflect #progress #success https://lnkd.in/eWUMs3q5

People are publicly proud of getting a job or joining an organization, while it is in our culture that leaving one is only negative. However, I am proud of myself more about making the decisions to leave a job, organization or a team than I am about joining one. Willfully taking the path of unknown is much more difficult than staying where we already know both the good and the bad. At the same time, staying where you witness dangerous activities, wilful ignorance or/and tyrannical leadership is not beneficiary or productive for you or anyone else. Accepting opportunities is great, but self respect improves from ones willingness to stop supporting what is clearly wrong. There is no gray area when we want to feel proud and live without regrets. We know exactly what is wrong. #increasingtimesvalue

The position you hold today is finite. At some point either you will resign your role or you’ll be invited to choose other opportunities. Unless you’ve allowed yourself to peak too soon and are not growing forward, you’ll find yourself in new roles that start your growth cycle all over again. Your current position is merely temporary. Yet, as leaders, the influence we wield is infinite. I’ve seen some really good folks feed off the power of their positions. I know I have certainly done it myself at times throughout my career. While not my default, I’d be lying if I didn’t admit that there weren’t a few occasions where a voice in the recesses of my spirit called out, “Do they know who I am?!” Ouch. Yeah, not my favourite thing to admit, ya’ll. But I think this happens to us all, and the real growth though is to not get stuck there. Leadership -character- is saying “Mea Culpa”: I am guilty. It is owning when we’ve behaved aberrantly and capitulated to that voice. It’s reminding ourselves that while our position is finite, we’re playing The Infinite Game. We are sowing the seeds of trees whose shade under which we’ll never sit. Ego will crop up. Mistakes will happen. And owning that will not only preserve the relationships with those around you, but also the one with yourself. Happy Growing! -M. #MullMentum #NarrativeLeadership #GenerationalMentorship

Through your career, you are going to be in alot of workplaces where moral goes through seasons of being way up, to way down. It's going to be tempting to blame your leaders, jump on the complaining wagon, leave, or just be frustrated every day. Here's what I've learned through my career journey: If you lead, talk to your teams about your vision. I tell my teams regularly this truth: We are going to continue to influence every area we touch for the better. We're going to lift those up around us. We're going to be who we are, and be constant, we are good human beings who care for one another and do their job with integrity and honor. In the end, even if the company fails, you did your part and grew in the process which will lead you to your next opportunity. Lead with that example and your team will begin to be a tide that causes all the other boats to rise. That's how you turn the curve of moral back upward, and eventually turn a company around.

People often ask me what the most important factor is for succeeding in their career. Truth be told, there are many. But if you have already taken care of the more obvious steps, the secret ingredient in my mind is sponsorship from a leader who can champion your cause. In my case, I had the privilege of having my line managers do this for me. In one instance, my manager called me out of the blue to ask if I would be interested in applying for an open role that would be a step up in my career growth. In all honesty, I wouldn’t have shortlisted myself for this role. I didn’t think I was ready. But he suggested that I give it a try, and we’d see how it goes. I chose to apply for the role more as a learning exercise—but I was pleasantly surprised when I made it through the process, and got the role….one that set my career on a new trajectory. Having a sponsor who champions your cause could be the difference between where you are and where you want to be! #management #careergrowth #leadership #leadershipdevelopment
