Journal Title: International Journal of Management, IT and Engineering - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 4
Abstract
Leadership Blind Spots means, not or unable to see beyond his/her vision by a leader. Those who aspire to become an entrepreneur, a professional in any field, a manager or a leader who has a vision will have to take the road uphill task. Anyone aspiring to become a business leader, entrepreneur or an effective professional needs to be aware of these conversational blind spots. They usually depend on the quality of our culture, which depends on the quality of our relationships, which depends on the quality of our conversations. Everything happens through conversations. Most importantly we tend to loose focus on certain blind spots which occur inadvertantly most of the time and at times supernaturally due to the leaders not sensing it. The blind spots are five like false assumptions, underestimating emotions, lack of empathy, making our own meaning, assuming shared meaning. Any leader need to be alert on the above five blind spots and need to take guard like having his concience questioning before speaking like Do I need to be on guard — and how?, Can I trust this person?,Where do I belong? Do I fit in? What do I need to be successful? and How do I create value with others?. This Exploratory study will reveal those conceptual clarity on the Leadership blind spots and its psychological implications on the individual and leadership personality for personal and professional success. This study will particularly focus on Leadership blind spots.
