A metaphor for an organisation is a wheel.
It’s well rounded.
The spokes are strong and well placed.
It is all connected by a solid central hub.
Leadership is about finding out what part of the wheel you are…
Are you a strong spoke, very good at an important function in the organisation.
Are you the central hub, holding things together in their rightful place?
Or are you like me, the space between the spokes, putting the right people (spokes) in the right place and giving them space to be their best?
The wheel doesn’t work without all of this.
Every part matters.
Find your place.
Mindfulness meditation, when done regularly over a long period of time, helps to create space between stimulus and response.
We wouldn’t give away parts of our properties. We wouldn’t give away our money without a positive reason.
