242: Do You Suffer From Leadership Blind Spots?

Rich BaronMaikel Bailey
Rich Baron & Maikel Bailey

Episode Notes

A Scotoma is a partial loss of vision or blind spot in an otherwise normal visual field. So how does this relate to leaders and organizations? The facts are based on global research from Gallup, Deloitte, and similar organizations that show that leadership is failing at a rate of 75% worldwide. These statistics are shocking and demonstrate a lack of two things regarding training and coaching new leaders. The first is obvious. It’s not happening. The second is not as evident. We call it “leadership scotoma.” Leadership scotoma is when those in leadership positions are blind to the fact that the leaders in their organizations are ill-prepared and ill-equipped to lead and are forced into roles of fakery – the essence of the Imposter Syndrome.

Rich and Maikel hope to pull off the blinders as we discuss the reason why failing to see or choosing to ignore leadership development can have a truly negative impact on both your organization and your own career.
