Intention vs Impact
How often do you find yourself compelled to justify your actions or defend your intentions?
When our intentions align with others’ experience, we open a world of possibilities to achieve the greatest things imaginable.
Flourishing teams have a deliberate and desired impact because they:
Say what they think
Mean what they say
Name what they feel
Floundering teams have an undesired impact because they:
Dare not say what they think
Rarely mean what they say
Avoid naming what they feel
To align your intentions with a desired impact, always hold what you think, feel, and say with respect and legitimacy. More important, is to hold what others think, feel, and say with even greater respect and legitimacy.
