This post might appear to run counter to my last one, but I think the principle is the same.
A new report from leadership consultancy PDI suggests that the key areas that a coach should focus on with an aspiring CEO are macromanagement (big surprise there, hey?) and their ability to express discontent and disagreement openly and directly.
The reason that I believe this is in line with the previous post is that what will make the difference to how your expressions of discontent are received will be how you are treating the people you are discontent with. Whether you are treating them as people with ambitions and desires just as important as your own, or treating them as inferior objects in need of correction and exact direction from the superior being that is you.
This also chimes with TA concepts - a disagreement with someone you treat as an equal adult will be conducted differently from one with someone you regard as a child.
So, you must be dissatisfied about something right now - how are you going to express that?
