Victor works from home since March 2020. He stopped travelling the world, and really enjoys spending more time with his spouse and 2 little daughters.
Yet, he feels heavily impacted, mentally and physically by how the business is managed.
He is leading the supply chain for a multi-billion dollar business.
Investments, staffing & succession planning, promotions, business improvement projects, have been frozen. Despite the record high profit results.
“We are in an exceptional situation” is the sentence he hears the most from his management.
And he spends Monday 8.30pm till Friday 6pm in back to back calls. Mostly with his management. And he is challenging the value of most of those discussions.
Victor is tired and pissed off. All around him is driven by FEAR.
“If FEAR was not there, what could be there instead?”, I asked him last week.
“GROWTH”, he replied. And this opened up new perspectives for him.
Victor took the following commitments:
GROW MYSELF – Walk 30 min every day.
GROW OTHERS – “What do my team members need most right now?”
GROW BUSINESS – Propose alternatives to current meeting set-up.
Not easy. Victor perseveres and slowly but surely drives the change he wants to see.
Your turn … What is ONE THING you do from a GROWTH mindset?
Love,
Delphine
