11:11 Tuesdays by Vaishali Wagle September 1, 2026 Happy 11:11 Tuesdays Reader, Here are 1 Thought, 1 Quote, 1 Word and 1 Humour for you to reflect upon this week. 1.ThoughtThe Unpopular Decision Some decisions are unpopular because they are wrong.

The real test comes when the data is incomplete, the consequences are personal, and the decision will be remembered long after the meeting is adjourned. Sometimes decision making is being willing to be misunderstood today to protect what matters tomorrow. What decision are you postponing because you are more concerned about its reception than its consequence? #LeadershipLab: Free training video on How to become executive ready 1.Quote“If you want to make everyone happy, don't be a leader.

Thought You’ve Outgrown Your Role Stagnation doesn’t always look like failure. It looks like competence without new learnings and challenges. You seem to know the role too well.
