In this episode, Ramona Shaw tackles the victim mindset in leadership. She explores how feeling powerless and blaming external factors can hold leaders (and employees) back. Ramona shares real-life examples and practical tips to shift from feeling stuck to taking charge. This is going to address both how leaders get themselves out of a victim mindset and how they can help their direct reports who might have a tendency to blame others and avoid ownership. Learn how to recognize and overcome a victim mindset, foster a positive outlook, and lead with a high degree of responsibility. Check it out HERE.
