Hello Georgia,
You've highlighted one of my favorite points AND area to work with individuals and teams - blindspots! It can be painful in the moment to have a blindspot revealed, but the long term impact is far more valuable then temporary discomfort.

I do appreciate your support for this topic. I agree, too, that more rigor around leadership is needed.  Perhaps rigor similar to that of being a coach.  Anyone can be a coach, but those who submit to a certification (inquiry and evaluation) are certified.  Heck, what's wrong with adding a few more letters at the end of our names, right? I'd submit myself for such a process if it meant letting clients and potential clients know the quality they are hiring.

Thank you for your support,
Shawn
