How founders and other senior leaders fail to lead…
#9 They avoid discomfort.
Sabotage their success purposely or subconsciously. Don’t cultivate the ability to manage increasingly stressful circumstances. Don’t address the feeling of imposter syndrome.
ESCAPISM: When things get tough, leaders often seek to distract themselves with drinking, drugs, gambling, shopping, eating or other excessive habits or addictions. Escapism typically doesn’t end well. If this describes you, please seek help.
#10 They are concerned with being liked vs respected.
Don’t make “tough” decisions that might be considered unpopular.
