GET IN THE ZONE
AND STAY THERE
AND STAY THERE
Can you remember the first lesson you ever learned about leadership? I can. It came from my dad. He used to tell my brother,my sister, and me, āFind out what you do well and keep on doing it.ā That wasnāt just casual advice. He and my mother made it their mission to help us discover our strengths and start developing them before we were old enough to leave home and go out on our own.
Dad also reinforced that advice by living it. One of his favorite sayings was āThis one thing I do.ā He had an uncanny ability to remain focused within his areas of strength. That, coupled with his determination to finish what he started, served him well throughout his career and beyond. He stays in his strength zone. It is one of the reasons he has always been the greatest inspiration for my life.
SEARCHING FOR STRENGTHS
When I started my career, I was committed to finding my strength zone and working to stay in it. However, I was frustrated for my first few years working. Like many inexperienced leaders, I tried to do many different things to discover what I really could do well. In addition, peopleās expectations for what I would do and how I would lead did not always match my strengths. My responsibilities and obligations sometimes required that I perform tasks for which I possessed neither talent nor skill. I was often ineffective as a result. It took me several years to sort all this out, find my strength zone, and recruit and develop other people to compensate for my weaknesses.
If you are a young leader and you are still uncertain about where your strengths lie, donāt get discouraged. Be patient and keep working it out. Hereās what I know: no matter if youāre just starting out or if you are at the peak of your career, the more you work in your strength zone, the more successful you will be.

Iāve heard many definitions of success from many people over the years....
