Leadership

Practice doesn't make you perfect; the realization of truth does. Feedback is a tool for self-effectiveness, not a weapon for ego-defense. To lead an ecosystem, you must first be able to lead yourself out of the trap of your own stories. Be impactful, not just senior.

3. The Feedback Reset** The next time you receive critical feedback, notice the physical sensation of defensiveness. Don't act on it. Instead, ask: *"If I remove my ego from this statement, what is the useful data point remaining?"* Adopt that data point. Discard the rest.
