Dangerous situations include:

  1. You trusted someone, and they tore you down.
  2. Toxic cultures that erode relationships.
  3. Defensive team members who attack when receiving feedback.
  4. Egos on the team focus on power instead of progress.
  5. Unpopular decisions that receive resistance.

How To Thrive In Dangerous Situations:

#1. Determine how you want to show up when you feel threatened. How can destructive situations bring out your best? Don’t be your worst self when you could shine – even if you don’t succeed.

The first question of leadership concerns being, not doing. You lose yourself when you focus on external situations before you settle how to show up.

leading yourself begins with managing your mindset

#2. Aim for a clear target. Ask, “What do I want?” Be specific.

#3. Focus on actions within your control. What behaviors move you toward preferred outcomes?

#4. Define behaviors you want to avoid. In dangerous situations avoid snap decisions, shutting down, or speaking in anger.

#5. Imagine your actions will make headlines. Don’t embarrass yourself.
