Analyze where your identity does not fit and why

Know how to adjust to the demands of your context
Build a 3 step reset routine to adjust your identity to changing circumstances without losing sight of your core values.
Why this topic matters
Most leaders build one leadership identity early on and then defend it, even when the situation has changed. A new team, a crisis, a promotion or a reorg each put different pressures on you, and the style that worked last year can quietly start working against you. Henry Murray showed that behavior is never just who you are: it is your core needs meeting the pressures around you. See this, and you can adjust on purpose instead of getting stuck.
