After a couple of days out and about, in glorious sunshine, guiding the Dereliction Walk, today I’m back at my desk, with the rain pounding against the windows. What was an experience now slips into memory.
But not without a conversation, back into my practice.
To be in dialogue with our practice is to take time - albeit only sixty seconds - to consider what we have done, how we feel about it, and what we may carry forwards or leave behind.
Today I am celebrating things that went well, and considering what I would change next time. Thinking about how my own understanding has changed, and where my curiosity now lies.
Part of travelling is to come back home, but being ‘home’ does not mean we are inactive.
Instead, the journey we make is into our own ideas. When I talk about leadership as ‘motion’ in the new Social Leadership work, I mean it in this sense as well. To move our understanding, and the boundaries of our certainty.
Use your sixty seconds today to consider how your leadership is in motion, and how.
