Are we paying attention to how we think and make mental transitions? And are our teams at the mercy of our mindsets? Do we, as leaders, have expectations of our teams that stem from strength or weaknesses in our ability to transition mentally?

This episode explores times of war, peace, and personal stress as initial examples of ways that we can pay attention to our thinking. Do our teams understand how we think and approach things? Are there any current misunderstandings due to miscommunications that track back to how we think?

Leaders have strong influence on the team's operations. Knowing how we transition mentally, and maybe learning how our team members transition mentally, can help with more clear communication. Please, take the next 5-10 business days and be mindful. Pay attention to thoughts and mental transitions.
