Reflect upon your leadership and your direction, and then practise thinking, acting and communicating at the different altitudes. Even if youâre not responsible for setting your organisationâs vision, spend some time each week thinking and learning about the outside world, its possibilities, its changes, its trends and the resulting opportunities or threats, now and in the future (50,000 feet). Likewise, allot time for executing, implementing and doing (50 feet). Lastly, set aside time to reflect on who you are, what youâre doing, why youâre doing it and how you can challenge yourself to be the best leader that you can be (5 feet).
