Transforming Leadership Through Perspective Shifts with Brian Schubring
Welcome to the Leadership Vision Podcast, our show helping you build a positive team culture. Our consulting firm has been doing this work for the past 25 years, ensuring that leaders are mentally engaged and emotionally healthy.
As we wrap up 2024, we’re bringing back our second-most-listened-to episode of the year: Embracing Perspective: How Leaders Can Innovate and Empathize for Better Decision Making. Originally released earlier this year, this discussion resonated with leaders who wanted to grow their curiosity, problem-solving skills, and adaptability.
As you prepare for the year ahead, we hope this conversation serves as a powerful reminder to stay open, curious, and willing to learn from those around you. Whether it’s your first time listening or a revisit, you’ll find actionable insights to implement in 2025. Enjoy!
Transforming Leadership Through Perspective Shifts
In this episode, we dive into why and how changing your perspective can transform your leadership and team dynamics. We uncover how shifting your perspective can help you:
- Understand Your Own Perspective – Personal experiences and biases can shape, and at times, limit our viewpoints, thereby affecting our decisions and interactions. Reflect on your lived experiences and thought processes to identify how they shape your leadership.
- Embrace Curiosity – Allow yourself to be inspired by the rewards of embracing new perspectives, which can guide our future choices and enhance life’s experiences both personally and professionally. Ask “why” and seek input from others to uncover new possibilities and solve problems collaboratively.
- Work the Actual Problem – Use facts, not assumptions, to address challenges effectively and avoid tunnel vision.
Key Takeaway for 2025:
Take the risk to broaden your view—embracing new perspectives leads to better decisions, stronger relationships, and more inclusive leadership.
Shifting Your Perspective in 2025
The way we see the world isn’t just about our vision. It’s about our readiness to embrace change; to innovate and to lead with empathy and inclusivity. As we embark on this journey of reflection and discovery, ask yourself how well do I really know my own perspective?
