<p>How much have you spent on your education?</p>
<p>I’m going to guess it’s more than $0.</p>
<p>But what if I told you that you can learn as much as you want, every single day, without having to spend a single penny?</p>
<p>All you have to do is be willing to be honest with yourself about where you’re going wrong. Then humble enough to seek answers from others.</p>
<p>I’ve been coaching leaders for over a decade, and I see this problem amplified in leadership positions.</p>
<p>Due to status, a fear of inadequacy, imposter syndrome, ego, or a fear of failure, leaders often fail to realise their potential because they can’t get past acknowledging where they need to grow.</p>
<p>If you want to be a better leader, you need to make peace with these things.</p>
<h2><strong>#1. Everything <em>is</em> your fault</strong></h2>
<p>It sucks and it’s not fair, but it’s the truest thing about leadership.</p>
<p>Try to deny this and you’ll erode any respect or trust you may have with internal and external stakeholders.</p>
<p>But this isn’t a negative. If you’re responsible for everything, it means you can learn from everything. YOU get to define the culture in your group, team, or organisation. You set the tone for how people respond to failure.</p>
