What are Shadows at Work and how can understanding and harnessing your dark side help unlock your leadership potential? I discussed this, his new book Shadows At Work and so much more with Steven D’Souza on Episode 103 of the Reframe & Reset Your Career podcast.
In this episode, we will learn about:
Being consistent and enjoying the journey rather than focusing solely on the outcome,
The value of experimentation through your life,
What is a Shadow?
What are the four lenses to view leadership?,
The influence of our biology on our behaviour and actions,
The significance of projection and why it can be beneficial,
Good leaders are aware of their flaws and try to manage them before they create issues,
Being aware that overplaying your strengths may cause problems,
Avoiding group think by having conflicting voices in the decision-making process,
Whenever you make a choice, there is the potential for loss but you don’t have to live with regret and
Accepting that we all have a mix of good and bad qualities and that life is full of nuance.
Steven is an award-winning educator, speaker, executive coach and best-selling author.
