Lack of Feedback : If as a leader you don’t subject yourself to a 360 review process, then you are not earnestly looking for personal growth and development opportunities. There seems to be way too much focus on “ me” and not enough focus on “ we” in today’s world. The boss will never go for that.&#

In recent months I have observed a decent amount of politically correct discourse on the topic of team building and equality. Team building, group dynamics, talent management, leadership development, and any number of other functional areas are much more about clarity, focus, aligning expectations, and defining roles than creating equality.
