As you well know, your role as a leader requires you to frequently shift gears and experiment with new approaches as the landscape of your business changes. Thus, it’s essential for you to be able to access new mental frameworks and inventive strategies that help you stay nimble and flexible in the workplace.

In this sub-element, we’ll explore how you relate to adaptability by asking the following questions:

• When presented with a problem, do you explore possible solutions from all angles?
• How often do you allow yourself to step back from standard processes and rigid thinking so you can approach problems with a playful and experimental attitude?
• How do you respond when faced with unexpected emotions, both from yourself and your employees?

Working with your responses to these questions, we’ll then formulate a plan to help enhance:

• Your comfort leading in the moment
• Your creativity in problem-solving
• Your ability to stay curious and open in challenging situations
