Ownership Mentality

What does it mean to have an "ownership mentality"? That's what we're covering today. And for us, having an ownership mentality is the same whether you're at work or in your personal life...because how you practice in one area is how you will perform in the other area.

What are the requirements for an ownership mentality? We talk about things like responsibility, accountability, initiative, resilience, self-awareness, being driven, continual learning, adaptability, team player, and long-term vision. Now, admittedly, that's a substantial list but these are the things that matter in your personal and work lives

I have found that self-assessments are a very healthy exercise, and we can use the list as the barometer to see where we are succeeding and what areas need improvement - both personally and professionally. This is how we GSD, this is how we lead from the trenches.

Take a long, hard look at that list and do some reflecting. You'll be better for it.
