This blog assumes that blind spots of power come with the CEO role no matter how good or true or well-intended you are. You can't afford to have them. So I give reminders of what I have seen in my experience to help you see. Or try to see. Monday morning practical tips will help you sharpen up and see what tweaks you and your blind spot. A little whack on the side of the head with your Monday morning coffee.

YOU MATTER.  YOU MATTER.  YOU MATTER.

When you are the very top leader of a company, the refinements in your development can be
pretty darn discrete.  Fine tuning.  Especially if you are good at leading.  Because then your good skill can become invisible or taken for granted.  Not necessarily a bad thing.

I just don't want it to be invisible to you.
You matter.  Perhaps too much because of the power you carry.
That's a different topic--how to disperse your power so it isn't too much about  you.

But you can do so much good (and bad) if you remember YOU MATTER.
You can be sincerely humble.  Or sincerely arrogant.

The point is "YOU MATTER".
Leadership is not esoteric or theoretical.
It's tangible.  You create the flavor, the smell, the hope, the despair, the energy, the lethargy, the commitment, the cynicism, the determination or your company.  I said "your company not the company"  You imprint it.

YOU MATTER.  Remember this.
