3 Ways to Overcome Challenging Barriers and Pay More Attention to What Matters in Life
1. Humility. “Overcoming hardship makes a leader see the triviality of always being right and proving a point,” says Carter, “they are open to feedback and honest criticism from peers and subordinates alike and are willing to consider it seriously.” “At the same time, they’re also teaching their team a great lesson about the power of humility and cooperation where everyone is heard and appreciated,” says Carter
2. Truthfulness. “Overcoming loss allows leaders to show vulnerability and be more open with their emotions,” says Carter “they set an excellent example for their people to interact with openness and honesty, which avoids the building up of grudges and other toxic feelings and emotions.”
3. Authenticity. “Trauma and tragedy make a great leader realize that pretense and fakeness aren’t worth the time and effort,” says Carter, “they have learned to live with themselves and expect others to accept them as they are.”
“Turning tragedy into triumph often means confronting bad news head-on,” says Carter. “delivering bad news will test any leader’s mettle, from telling stakeholders that revenues are down to informing your team about layoffs.”
