In this thought-provoking episode, executive coach Stephanie Schott explores the concept of "amor fati" - the love of fate - and its powerful application in modern leadership.
Key points covered:
- The leadership paradox: The need to embrace change despite our instinctual fear of it.
- The distraction of success and failure: How both winning and losing can pull us away from our core purpose.
- Introduction to "amor fati": A philosophical approach to loving everything that happens to us, including setbacks.
- The illusion of control: Insights from a workshop revealing how little leaders actually control.
- Practical applications of "amor fati" in leadership:
- Redefining leadership: Shifting from controlling change to guiding organizations through it.
- A new strategic thinking: Finding courage to proceed in uncertainty and viewing failures as learning opportunities.
Stephanie challenges leaders to embrace this paradox of change, leading from a place of acceptance and adaptability rather than fear and control. She argues that this approach, while uncomfortable, is essential for true transformation and effective modern leadership.
