Cheeky Half Episode (25): Leading without a ‘playbook’.
When leading teams or organisations, there is often an unspoken expectation that, no matter how dark the challenge, those leading us will know a way through to the light. After all, surely they have done this before. They simply open their leadership playbooks to the relevant page, and there we go.
But there we don’t.
In this Cheeky Half Paul and KG talk about the potential folly of insisting on solving problems the same way you’ve always done it – which is essentially the purpose of a ‘playbook’. We assume most of us concur with the well-worn adage, “Past performance is no guarantee of future results.” It’s no different in our daily leadership practice.
So what’s the ‘answer’?
