Blind Spots

Is It Me or Is It Them?

The skills in a leader and arguably in any individual which most contribute to personal impact, are those that are derived from our emotional intelligence. There is a large literature around this. In the business sector CEOs with high EI scores improve business outcomes and revenues for their companies.

Sustainable change in individuals’ leadership and management capabilities, can be brought about by coaching interventions rather than group learning programmes. This being the case, understanding our personal impact on others is a key starting point.

Do you have blind spots when leading teams and assessing your impact on others? Are your strengths as a team member getting in the way of you team leadership? How can you know?

Moving from one role to another in medical careers is common: clinical lead, clinical director, medical director DME, TPD, the list is endless. Nothing in our medical training prepares us for this. Most of the challenges doctors face, are not as a result of the lack of their medical knowledge but are a result of navigating the demands and intricacies of organisations, difficult colleagues or teams, or challenging working environments.

See how coaching to increase our impact and leadership competencies can help support clinical outcomes for your team, your own leadership development and your contribution to your organisation.
