APPLIED LEADERSHIP: REPLACING HIDDEN BELIEFS WITH INTENTIONAL ACTION
Even the most experienced and high-performing leaders can unknowingly carry hidden beliefs that undermine their effectiveness. These limiting beliefs, quiet and habitual thought patterns, shape how leaders communicate, delegate, and develop others.
Drawing from recent insights published in Harvard Business Review and grounded in The Pacific Institute’s 50+ years of mindset science, this session will explore the seven hidden beliefs most commonly seen in leaders today.
In this Beyond Limits Executive Briefing, Kevin Spindt, Chief Growth Officer at The Pacific Institute, will guide participants through a focused and practical exploration of how these beliefs show up in behavior, how they affect teams and culture, and how leaders can shift their thinking and actions to unlock higher trust, clarity, and influence.
