Brave Leaders Clear The Pathway For Success

Tags : 

Do you know any brave leaders? In the workplace people are often confronted with choices. Choices for behavior that will condition what happens next.

While many people seek success by merit, much of your success is created by navigation.

Certainly, you need to have the knowledge, skills, and abilities to perform but you should never underestimate the value of relationships, etiquette, and social prowess.

Bravery may be something you haven’t really considered.

Brave Leaders

Being brave shouldn’t imply confrontation, harmful conflict, or cognitive dissonance.

Brave may be facing challenges head on rather than procrastinating or otherwise delaying necessary actions.

You might consider how you unveil your recent findings while studying the data or how you will advise the boss that too many cocktails and flirty behavior at the social gathering might turn off investors.

Also under consideration is risk. How far will you stray from the mainstream concepts for marketing in your industry. How risky will your ad campaign be?

Taking a stand on any topic of conversation might be a brave move. Will it be accepted or rejected?

Bravery is part of navigation that many workplace professionals struggle with. How much is the right amount and how much will reflect an imagine of being overdone?

Will your bravery disrupt your image of organizational fit?

Cross Roads

Throughout any career there are crossroads. Choices and decisions that need to be made.

Focusing on what is deemed right matters. What is deemed right by your standards may not be part of the culture of every organization.

Bravery is almost never a short-run game. Appropriately balanced with navigation it will determine long-run success.

Your next move might require the most bravery of all.
