Part 2 of 3: Our self-perception always misses the mark compared to how everyone else thinks of them. A depressed person assumes their colleagues don’t like them. An autocratic boss thinks, “They respect me because I’m tough but fair!” Their employees think the opposite.

Part 1 of 3: Here’s a depressing thought. Psychologists tell me that everybody thinks they have integrity—it’s the mental model we carry around. Picture all of us living in our own reality bubble of who we are—while some others think the opposite!

Part 3 of 3: In the leadership world, what we think of ourselves is not as important as what others think of us. This requires getting (and not just giving) feedback. Don’t fly blind. Without asking for heavy doses of advice, how else can you make midcourse corrections?
