You live and you learn. You learn and you live.
We try our very best to arm our children with tools we know they will need to live the best life they can, but we forget that life will present them situations where those tools might not do the cut.
Being responsible of a team, listening, allowing, guiding with the tools we know are the ones they need, prepares them to execute their job as expected and some may exceed expectations.
The tools you equip your team with, do not guarantee they are covered for all and any issues they will come across on their daily duties.
As a leader, allowing others to grow and discover what they are capable of during their own journey, will also show you that it is not just following check lists, or SOPs how things can be done. They might not fit the unexpected.
Living a global situation for which we were not prepared and for which tools were not given, we learn and apply as we go.
COVID-19 forced us to adjust to a new reality were creativity also flows, giving space to new tools we can now teach to others, both professionally and personally.
People will follow a leader they can look up to, but you must be open to do things without being prepared when the circumstances call for it.
COVID-19 has open my eyes to new faces of people I thought I knew and has also hide faces of those same people. Make sure you remain the leader others looked up to and followed.
