Flip Your Focus
What we focus on is usually what we get.
In the heat of any change - whether personal, team or an entire workplace - there is a tendency to have a deficit and scarcity focus. What isn’t working, what is wrong, what are the gaps.
What if we were to flip that?
When we focus on strengths - what is working, what our strengths and capabilities are, and what we can leverage and grow - we offer a more positive path forward.
We focus on the outcomes of change. We clarify where we are heading. We encourage and support people to access resilience and build capacity.
If the change you seek feels tough, if you see more problems than solutions, and if you wonder how you’ll close the gaps, it might be time to flip your focus. You might be surprised at what change you get.
