I’m ‘growing through other’

I’m so sick of leadership catchphrases. Irritable enough, is also right in the majority!

This morning I met with my mentee. And I was struck by the cliché is actually true: it is developing to be a mentor.

By mentoring, I have to think through how I do things and why. It is a bit embarrassing having to admit it, because I have developed allergies to all the clichés surrounding leadership and leadership development. But «I want to grow the second« it is so true.
