Many of you know a golf addict who, needless to say, was watching Tiger Woods in route to another victory at the Memorial tournament two weeks ago. The commentator said “that swing change that Tiger made is why he’s hit every fairway this weekend.” In fact they went on to show viewers the video of the slight but high impact change Tiger made.
So once again — here’s the lesson. The great ones never stop learning and modifying their approach! Here is a guy once again who is arguably the best on the planet AND he pushes himself to find new ways to be even more effective.
I see two kinds of leaders in my executive coaching practice. There are leaders who have an unwavering commitment to learning and developing new ways of leading in this challenging time, and also leaders who think they know leadership and are spending energy begrudging the changing world and workforce.
Which are you? Maybe you should think about changing your swing.
