The Importance of Shifting Your Perspective?

March 21, 2017 By //  by J. Val Hastings

It’s amazing the difference that even the slightest change of perspective can make.

In your work as a leader, I want to encourage you to regularly shift your perspective. This intentional shift in perspective will frequently provide you with important information that will be of value to you as a leader.

How do you shift your perspective?

  • Intentionally have conversations with a completely different set of people. If you usually receive input from your staff, instead talk with volunteers or other departments.  Or talk with individuals completely outside of your organization or niche.
  • Read, watch or engage in something that has nothing to do with your subject matter or niche. I know of one business coach that studied ballroom dancing.  He later reported the valuable contribution that ballroom dancing made to his business coaching.
  • Physically go to a different location. It’s interesting how much our environment influences us.

You get the idea.

All the best to you,
