Leading or managing is like driving a car. The right reflexes are essential to reach your destination safely.
Look straight ahead to move towards your destination.
But also:
✅ take a look in the rearview mirror;
✅ watch your blind spots;
✅ respect traffic signs 🚸;
✅ be attentive to the signals of other motorists;
✅ communicate your intentions before a maneuver;
✅ adapt your driving to the weather 🌧️ ❄️
✅ monitor the state of your faculties, which may be weakening.
Another essential precaution: make sure your vehicle is in good condition 🚗:
👉🏾Avant to take to the road (a technical overhaul is sometimes necessary).
👉🏾Pendant the route.
Make sure the car 🚙 doesn't run out of fuel at the start.
And depending on the length of the journey, plan to stop off at the gas station.
Each of these components is essential to reaching your destination.
Safe and sound
Managing like driving:
🔴Have a clear course, a clear goal;
🔵 Plan, organize, prevent risks;
🟢 Take care of resources (including yourself);
🟡Communicate, interact with agility.
What kind of manager or leader are you?
Or rather, what kind of driver are you?
