Leadership Lessons from Flight Training-Pilot Your Way to Success
Leadership in every context is a lot like flying an airplane: people are depending on you, they are expecting to move from one place to the next (physically or metaphorically), and at a bare minimum the quality of families’ lives is on the line. Do you want to be the leader who tries to do it all alone or do you want to embrace a style where everyone on your team owns the process of advancing the mission safely? Like flying an airplane, leading in an organization can be exhilarating, terrifying, and rewarding all at the same time. Regardless of what you’re working on, effective leaders must know how to wind down a project, a difficult conversation, or any other delicate endeavor with skill and grace. Take the time to learn to develop, enhance, and “land” your leadership endeavors gracefully. You are going to be able to use lessons from flight training to pilot your way to success!
- Develop a “flight plan” so that that your stakeholders will know and appreciate where you plan to go and how you intend to get there.
- Synchronize your efforts with your partners and the EHDI system for mutual success.
- Identify how to maintain (or regain) your focus and frame of reference and periodically re-evaluate.
