When it comes to learning to be a leader, there’s a real learning curve. It takes time to weather the insecurities of being a new manager, learn from your mistakes, and get to the point where you feel competent and comfortable in the role of leader. By this time you have probably developed a “leadership style” that fits for you, […]. The post The Shadow Side of Leadership appeared first on Seapoint Center for Collaborative Leadership.

With over 35 years under my belt as an independent consultant, I’ve learned much about how to make life work and make work come alive. It has been a fun ride with lots of amazing growth and heartwarming contribution—and, I am far from done! In that sense, I wish everyone could be a consultant. Thank goodness, all are not! But, I have noticed that employees who assume the style and manner of a successful independent consultant are the ones that get ahead and seem to have a great time doing it!

We all have behavioral blind spots, and uncovering those can help you to see what others see, when they see it, and whether they’re helpful or not in certain circumstances in leading people. Many of the behaviors you exhibit are habits – things you say and do that have been shaped through years in your subconscious. The ideal situation is that you are awake and aware of your behaviors and the external forces that trigger them.

To achieve something significant in the world, to have a meaningful influence, you need to be a rebel. A rebel knows how to challenge the status quo and make an impact. It’s the executive assistant who, frustrated by her nonresponsive boss, coordinates a meeting with the company’s vice presidents to help her develop a strategy for bringing about change.

Over the past few months, I’ve written a number of articles that examined from different vantage points the importance of leaders providing support and guidance for those under their care. Judging from the response these pieces received, it’s clear that these ideas and insights certainly resonated with my readers.

Photo by Joshua Ness. A growing number of people feel like an old carton of milk, with an expiration date stamped on their wrinkled foreheads. One paradox of our time is that Baby Boomers enjoy better health than ever, remain young and stay in the workplace longer, but feel less and less relevant. They worry, justifiably , that bosses or potential employers may see their age more as liability than asset.

Steven Moore for HBR. For managers and marketers alike, the power to calculate what customers might be worth is alluring. That’s what makes customer lifetime value (CLV) so popular in so many industries. CLV brings both quantitative rigor and long-term perspective to customer acquisition and relationships. “Rather than thinking about how you can acquire a lot of customers and how cheaply you can do so,” one marketing guide observes , “CLV helps you think about how to opti

Today's conventional wisdom says to survive, companies must move beyond incremental innovation and invest in radical, disruptive innovation. But by doing this, organizations often abandon the "crown jewels" that built the organization, setting their sights instead on reinventing the future of their industry. In "THE POWER OF LITTLE IDEAS" , Wharton professor David Robertson examines an approach to innovation; one that is neither incremental nor disruptive.

International migration is on the rise. By one estimate , the number of international migrants worldwide reached 244 million in 2015, up from 222 million in 2010, and 173 million in 2000. Immigration does not merely increase the size of the population in the destination country; it also increases demographic and cultural diversity, particularly when immigrants have come from very distant countries.

Artificial intelligence is a hot topic right now. Driven by a fear of losing out, companies in many industries have announced AI-focused initiatives. Unfortunately, most of these efforts will fail. They will fail not because AI is all hype, but because companies are approaching AI-driven innovation incorrectly. And this isn’t the first time companies have made this kind of mistake.

Expatriate assignments are notoriously difficult. They require major professional and cultural adjustments, both coming and going, and those transitions are as tough on families as they are on employees. When people go home after working abroad, they often experience decreased job satisfaction, sometimes even depression. As a result, repatriate turnover is alarmingly high — up to 38% in the year following return.
