How intelligently vulnerable are you?

 

If you’re a good leader; odds are, you try not to be vulnerable.

 

If you’re an exceptional leader, odds are, you enjoy the benefits of being vulnerable.

 

Why would anyone enjoy being vulnerable?

.

I didn’t share this belief on vulnerability earlier in my career nor in life!

Why consider changing to become more vulnerable?

 

If your Holistic-DMQ is below 8.0; it would probably be best, not to change and become more vulnerable. Leaders with an 8.0 DMQ or lower, are already vulnerable to leading only a “Good” or “Average” career and life, given the natural caps on their decision making ability. There’s isn’t anything unusual about this, since most leaders fit into this category (84%, per the statistically objective, Standard Bell-Curve).

Interestingly, if your Holistic-DMQ is 8.0 or higher, there are two main forks you can choose.

 

Fork A:  Use your Holistic-DMQ primarily for self-centered benefits. Life is good, comfortable and you have surplus to give in order to “look good”, which in-turn, is likely to make you feel “good”; but, not genuinely (be honest) “Amazing”.

 

Fork B:  Use your Holistic-DMQ primarily for selfless benefits. Life is Amazing, you have plenty and you’re able to leverage your surplus:

  • Organizational Position’s decision making ability
  • Wealth
  • Heart

to lead a Holistic (vs. only a professional or personal) Purpose-Driven Life!

Paradoxically, if you choose “Fork B”, you’ve indirectly chosen the most beautiful self-centered choice; being selfless so you can lead an extraordinary life that’s off-limits to those who choose to not be vulnerable, selfless, etc.

.

Thus; you become the primary beneficiary, who is now self-empowered to live an Amazing, Extraordinary Life.

Fork B Professionally:  If you’re a High-DMQ Leader, open the door of opportunity to talent that can make your organization better. Take a percentage of the financial success that results and give it to the charity of your choice.

 

This is the gist of our Social Impact model. Your organization benefits while you’re helping people with fewer resources and opportunities availed to you; at no net cost. Intelligent Impact!

 

Fork B Personally:  If you’re a High-DMQ person, have the courage to be vulnerable enough to open your sternum and expose your heart. You’ll discover Amazing opportunities with people who actually and selflessly appreciate you.
