Takeaways
We asked our recent cohort students about their biggest CAL II takeaway. Here were some responses:
“Be more vocal—don’t wait to speak my mind when it’s necessary”
“Be more mindful of how I respond to others and remember to control what I can and not worry about what I can’t”
“Embrace delegation—I don’t have to do everything”
“Be more intentional about using powerful language and doing a better job of coaching”
“Listen more and ask more questions”
“Authentic leadership. Focus on being a leader and holding true to my values.”
“This has been a relief! It’s a huge reset for me and feels almost therapeutic.”
“My 1:1 with direct reports will be very different from now on. I will focus on coaching and ask permission to mentor them.”
“Review week at-a-glance to be more prepared for the week.”
“More self-aware of reactive tendencies.”
“I’m more self-aware, especially with my saboteurs and where they came from.”
