Happy 11:11 Tuesdays Reader,

Here are 1 Thought, 1 Quote, 1 Word and 1 Humour for you to reflect upon this week.

Thought

Succession Dilemma

Leaders who plan succession early don’t weaken their authority, they amplify it.

They do two things that are critical for organisational success - They create confidence that the organisation can grow beyond any one individual, while simultaneously creating the capacity for themselves to take on larger, more strategic responsibilities.

Ironically, the absence of a successor doesn't prove you're indispensable. It often signals that you've become a bottleneck.

Lack of succession is the surest way to sabotage your future self.


If someone were ready to step into your role tomorrow, what new opportunity would finally become possible for you?
