Check Your Paradigms

02/04/2020 Posted by BH Leadership

Dr. Covey popularised the term “paradigm,” which comes from the Greek root paradigma, meaning a pattern, model, or representation of something. Our paradigms are the perceptions, frames of reference, worldviews, value systems, or lenses through which we see everyone and everything, including ourselves.

They add meaning, true or false, to the world around us, and affect the way we interpret what we see and experience, and how we interact and relate with others. Our paradigms are perhaps the most powerful tools we have in how we interact with others. It’s worth serious introspection to check why we view others the way we do and correct any misperceptions or outdated beliefs.

Make a list of all the people who report to you. One by one, reflect on your current paradigm of them as a professional or their promotability. Are you willing to challenge its accuracy? Could it be incomplete?

How are you keeping a positive paradigm during this unpredictable time?
