#286: You Have the Power to Choose Your Response
Manage episode 494213439 series 2500400
Ever reacted emotionally and regretted it? You’re not the only one!
In this episode, I talk about the powerful concept of “the gap” – the space between your emotions and the response you choose to take. It’s a concept that helps you lead more calmly and effectively, even under pressure.
You’ll learn:
- How Viktor Frankl’s experience inspired this simple but powerful leadership skill
- Practical ways to pause and choose your response in the moment; and
- How to avoid reacting emotionally in challenging work situations.
If you’ve ever lost your cool or wish you handled a situation differently, this episode will give you tools to lead with more control and confidence.
