Leadership Biz Cafe with Tanveer Naseer The Optimism That Keeps Leaders Going During Uncertain Times | Leadership Espresso Shot 79
It seems there's not a lot everyone can agree on these days … except maybe how hard it can be to feel optimistic about things. After all, optimism is something reserved for when things are going well, not something we should expect during periods of uncertainty and disruptive change.
But what if our thinking about optimism is all wrong?
In this edition of my Leadership Espresso Shot series, I share a story from the life of an incredibly successful leader who faced a period of uncertainty much like we're experiencing now, the only difference is that his company was on the verge of bankruptcy.
But it’s what he did next that reveals a powerful lesson for how we should view optimism, especially during periods of uncertainty if we want to ensure we can continue to succeed and grow in the years to come.
I’ve shared this story in some of my leadership keynotes and I can tell you it really does help to inform and re-energize our understanding of what we can and should be doing to effectively lead our team through the fog of uncertainty and change.
