Your leadership style isn’t a medical diagnosis. It’s not fixed. It’s a pattern—and patterns can change. Try this: Diagram your next meeting. Who speaks? How often? What kinds of questions or comments? AI can help. Or go old-school and chart it by hand. Then ask yourself: How do you show up? What do you want to shift? Here’s one way to practice shifting: - If you lead with analysis – loosen your grip. Make a call without all the data. - If you’re expressive and talkative – pause. Listen first, then ask a question. - If you're direct and action-oriented – slow down. Ask about impact, not just output. - If you're creative and nonlinear – share the al-dente thought. Speak before it’s fully cooked. Leadership starts with noticing. Then choosing differently. It’s a great day to be coachable.
