How Do I Think Like a Leader When I’m Still Becoming One?
In this episode of The Next Move, Orvin Kimbrough delves into the mindset shift required for effective leadership. He discusses the transition from contributor to leader, emphasizing leadership as a responsibility rather than a means of control. Orvin highlights the role of wisdom and shares the transformative shifts in his own journey. The episode explores transitioning from tasks to a systems thinking approach, focusing on outcomes and moving from activity to impact. Orvin discusses expanding influence from self to team to organization and underscores essential leadership traits: curiosity, courage, and capacity. He concludes with three approaches to the leadership shift and a reflection question for listeners.
