We learn best when we are struggling with something.
How do you keep stepping out to the edge, so you are still struggling and learning?
Recently I was in a situation where I literally had no idea what I was doing. So for much of the engagement, I used my instincts and made many, many mistakes.
I kept moving on.
Management versus Leadership
Management is a business skill.
If you want to become a better manager, read books about it, attend school and think rigorously about it.
Leadership, on the other hand, is a human skill.
To become a better leader, you need to be determined to be a better human. To do this you need to understand who you really are and develop some objective insights and who you really are.
