Post by Marshall Goldsmith Stakeholder Centered Coaching

Most leaders are working hard to improve the wrong thing: their own opinion of themselves. But leadership effectiveness was never self-defined. A leader is effective to the exact degree that the people around them experience them as effective. Perception isn't the soft part of leadership — it's the actual scoreboard. Which is why self-assessment quietly fails. You can feel more patient, more strategic, more open, and if your stakeholders haven't noticed, nothing has changed where it counts. The work is closing that gap: understanding how you're actually perceived, then involving the people who hold that perception in the change itself. That's the heart of Stakeholder Centered Coaching®, and what we'll teach live on July 8 at Learn to Coach Like Marshall Goldsmith. Register: https://lnkd.in/dudN_iVT Perception is the reality. Coach accordingly.
