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.

CEO DROPPINGS



I do hope that you are not blind to the fact that when you travel around and wander about your organization, you always leave something behind that tells who and what you are. So be conscious of what you CHOOSE to leave.

--Inspiration or hopeless burden

--Desire to do better work or a sense that nothing is ever good enough

--Understanding of the big picture for the company or details to drown in

--A sense of "can-do" power or a message of "watch-out"?

--A sense of purpose and hardiness of a kind of flabby "keep at it" vagueness

--Sincere appreciation or fake thank-you's

--Anxiety/fear or energy to take on more 

--Real leading or sham leadership

You are never not leaving behind a trail.
