"Most high-performing leaders I work with have one channel turned up loud (head, pointed outward) and the other three barely registering. They've become brilliant receivers of external signals and strangers to their own interior."
"We've been exquisitely trained and rewarded for reading the room, listening outward. We almost never read ourselves, listening inward."
Many leaders are adept at listening to others but fail to tune into their own internal signals. They typically excel in outward listening, quickly assessing external needs and dynamics. However, they often overlook their own body, heart, and soul, focusing predominantly on their intellect. This imbalance leads to a lack of self-awareness and fulfillment, as they become disconnected from their inner experiences. True discernment requires attention to both outward and inward channels, which many high performers neglect.
