Know Thyself

Know Thyself

Dear Happiness & Leadership Community,

"Knowing thyself is the essence of leadership." - Warren Bennis

In this week's letter, I share the importance of self awareness and how Harvard Business School Professor Scott Snook's lecture will live on through me. I discuss his powerful talk on opening up your Johari window in order to let others in.

Our coaching engagements most always begin with a 360, revealing blind spots and insights to help a leader grow. 360s are not just for people, but for companies too.

Knowing yourself and your business well is critical for success. While this may sound like common sense,

"Common sense is not that common." - Voltaire

If this is helpful to you, please share with a colleague.

With love and gratitude,

Grace

I really like that insightful messages are 360 for individuals as well as companies or teams to reflect upon.

Great article. Coupling 360s with introspection can really build one's leadership skills.
