Advanced Executive Leadership

#18 - Going deeper on perspective taking

Listen on

Episode notes

Perspective-taking breaks a golden rule: to treat others as we’d like to be treated and turns it on its head… to treat others as they’d like to be treated.

I wonder the impact on leadership if we were to do this more?

That's what my guest, Sarah Freiesleben, and I explore in this episode.

Sarah mentions Dave Snowden and his Cynefin framework for managing complexity. You can read Dave’s original HBR article here: https://hbr.org/2007/11/a-leaders-framework-for-decision-making

I mention working with polarities and the work of Barry Johnson. You can find out more about his work here: https://www.polaritypartnerships.com/applications-impact
