Being perceived through someone else's lenses doesn’t absolve you of the responsibility to shape your demeanor.
"What I meant to say" signals a failure in clarity. Let any misunderstanding be because others didn’t listen, not because you didn’t care enough to be clear.
Leaders mistakenly believe that better performance will eventually allow them to focus on culture, but this approach is flawed and toxic.
Don't make the mistake of thinking that "the team" can create a culture alone. They want you to do this work. They'll respect you for it.
I’m watching @TheMasters coverage. All I can think about is this pen in the one of the hosts hand…you can cover golf’s most prestigious tournament but you can’t buy a nice pen?
