Once a leader acknowledges how believably s/he can lie to himself/herself, there grows a new appreciation of the input from others in helping the leader see his/her own blind spots.
The younger leader oftentimes isn’t sure s/he has any blind spots. The mature leader is convinced s/he does and needs others to help them both see them and manage them for maximum effectiveness.
See the poster on Identity vs. Role for an exploration of defensiveness to input from others and First Acknowledge and Then Solve to appreciate the foundational role of taking personal responsibility before any significant solving can take place.
