Self-Mastery For Leaders – Unleashing Your Best Self

We often meet leaders feeling overwhelmed, stressed, and trapped in the daily complexities of work and life. 

In response, it is easy to turn to simple stuff that requires less cognitive load rather than addressing what matters. 

When we need to handle complexity the most, we are least able to. Complexity tends to trigger us, making us anxious, afraid, or overwhelmed, leading to reactivity and oversimplification. When we are calm, we can handle complexity better.

Adapted from Jennifer Garvey Berger: Unleashing your complexity genius 

Alternatively, we can learn to develop our self-mastery to find better solutions to meet today’s challenges. Self-mastery is a critical component of effective leadership, as it helps leaders to:

  • Stay composed in challenging situations
  • Be clear about what matters (inner compass)
  • Shift fear to curiosity
  • Inspire others
  • Build strong relationships that have an impact

“The success of an intervention depends on the interior condition of the intervenor.”

– Bill O’Brien
