In the past three weeks, I have facilitated several meetings within organizations both large and small in which I helped teams create plans to meet their goals. One common and recurring theme I hear is the “problem with management” or “the leaders don’t understand what we’re dealing with”. When these comments are made, the leaders aren’t in the room. And in my own experience, even if they were, they might not be responsive to this criticism about their lack of commitment and understanding.

I often reflect on the point in my career when I was promoted to a position reporting to the Vice Chairman of one of the largest insurance companies in the world. I was so excited to be a senior person “in charge” at a young stage of my career. However, I began to notice, in the first couple of weeks, that people who used to just drop in to my office no longer stopped by.

It’s the quest of many working people – work hard, do a good job and get promoted someday so you can be the boss. It’s the reward in most corporate cultures, to climb the ladder and be in charge. If most of us get to the top by climbing our way there, how come we forget what it’s like to be down in the ranks?
