How to Spot & Overcome a Victim Mindset

The Manager Track

In this episode, Ramona Shaw tackles the victim mindset in leadership. She explores how feeling powerless and blaming external factors can hold leaders (and employees) back.

Ramona shares real-life examples and practical tips to shift from feeling stuck to taking charge. This is going to address both how leaders get themselves out of a victim mindset and how they can help their direct reports who might have a tendency to blame others and avoid ownership.

Learn how to recognize and overcome a victim mindset, foster a positive outlook, and lead with a high degree of responsibility.
