Episode #752 - Embracing Failure: Navigating Risk In Organizations with Adam Davidson

When people study what makes a business leader successful, the thing that comes up again and again, the most consistent is that they give time for reflection, time alone with themselves for reflection. And that is something I've become increasingly obsessed with in my life and with the life of my clients. When I look back at my life, that you're always on some kind of race to something. I mean, and I like that. I like being a racist. I like having goals, but having some method, whether it's a coach or meditation or or church or whatever it is, or a friend you can go for long walks on or going for walks alone, having really honoring and taking that time. And I think an hour a week is probably a minimum of just what do I want? What is working? I'm increasingly thinking that is a major, major requirement for both leadership and career success, but also just a happy life.
