Viewpoints

Sometimes, simple life “happenings” cause you to pause to reflect and zoom out. I recently got a standup desk. After about a year of complaining about not having one, I finally got around to it. I now stand-up in my office while working when, heretofore, I was at the “chair level".” I now see and experience both viewpoints out of my two windows differently, as I am a few feet above where I normally was positioned. What’s the leadership lesson here? By simply changing your location, viewpoint, angle, or experiences — you can have see things anew. Maybe you were missing something, or not understanding another’s point of view. Try to change the lens of observation, even for a trial run, and see how it looks.
