There are two questions that I often ask in my coaching work of others: What do you really care about? and What are you leading for at home, and at work? They are of course both questions that invite Future focus and are particularly relevant at times of change and transition. I have been asking myself these questions as I near the end of two years studying and am thinking about my future. The questions have me feel both excited and somewhat scared.
From my enquiry I know that what I care about is relationships. I truly believe and wonder at all the possibilities that come from great relationships. It is where I want to bring my focus and energy, in the future and right now. I am curious about what I will learn about myself, about others, and where I will get support and challenge. I am wondering more than ever about building bigger relationships with people, learning from them and being up to something with and alongside them as they face into challenges and change.
Leadership Nudge: Are you being courageous and curious enough about what you care about most? Are you being bold and daring about what you want to lead for and create in your work? How are you supporting others to be bold, daring, courageous and curious? Who is in your support network to help make your future a reality?
