Deep dives
Learning from Leaders' Thinking
The podcast emphasizes the importance of studying leaders' thinking rather than just their actions to understand effective leadership. By exploring how great leaders think, individuals can enhance their own leadership skills. The episode discusses receiving feedback on a book, 'Winning the War in Your Mind,' with reviews highlighting its impact on improving leadership and personal growth.
Changing Leadership Mindset
The episode introduces three suggestions to change the way leaders think. Firstly, it suggests finding a mentor significantly ahead in leadership to provide a unique perspective and induce growth. Secondly, it advises paying attention to areas where one strongly disagrees as they often indicate opportunities for learning and growth. Lastly, it encourages leaders to embrace being wrong as a key component of personal development and increased leadership capacity.
Shifting Thinking for Effective Leadership
The podcast outlines upcoming sessions focusing on transforming leadership thinking. It highlights the importance of empowering others over controlling them, prioritizing investment over spending, emphasizing possibilities over problems, and inspiring rather than motivating. Emphasizing that leadership reflects one's strongest thoughts, the episode underscores the significance of aligning thoughts with the desired direction for impactful leadership.
As leaders, sometimes we try to copy what good leaders are doing—and that's not a bad place to start. But in this kickoff to a five-part series, Craig Groeschel shares an even better approach: learning to think how the best leaders think.
