Managing fear is an important skill for leaders

Become non-reactive to fear. - Tony Jamous

You're always faced with very scary challenges. But you cannot react to that. Because if you react to that you propagate in the organization unnecessary fear, unnecessary anxiety. That would lead to the wrong decision. - Tony Jamous

Manage yourself. Lead yourself. Sustain yourself. This is where the sustainable leadership concept came from. You have to be there for yourself as a leader to process this emotion so that you don't go and snap at your team, create behavior that generates fear in the system. - Tony Jamous


Sustainable Leadership

We often hear about Servant Leadership, or Service Leadership, but Tony was the first I've heard focus on Sustainable Leadership

Love the focus on the long haul, keeping the culture and team insulated from as much fear as possible.

And taking care of yourself, so you can take care of other in the business.

So much wisdom in that announcement we've all heard dozens if not hundreds of times on commercial airlines all around the world.

Put your own mask on first, before helping others with theirs.

Timeless advice.
