Boundaries create a healthy tension. The work of leadership is developing and maintaining roles, expectations, and responsibilities through clear communication.
Values are the driving force of any individual and organization. They give meaning to all that is done and help to know how to move forward in uncertainty. They are the issues of the heart and the basis of all our choices.
Life and death is in the power of the tongue. Few leaders realize the creative power of naming life and thus defining our relationship to it.
The goal in the tension created by uncertainty is to show up. To be fully present in a way that makes space for others to be present with you. As easy as it sounds, this is the hardest work a leader can do to be successful.
A difference in relational opinion, focus, gifting or awareness of what is happening and how to interpret it. It is healthy, normal and needed. Where is there tension? How am I responding to the tension?
We all make assumptions about life. The work is knowing when to expose them and deal with them. Tension is often a gift as it helps expose the assumptions we are making and gives us a chance to stand back and test them.
How you frame an issue will define how you relate to it. In the midst of tension the work of a leader is to get and keep a wide frame or 3D frame of the issues so that you have as many options as is possible.
What do you do in uncertainty? The simplest answer is the most profound. You become curious and ask questions. It is a beautifully simple art, but we spend our whole life developing it.
