Significance
Synopsis
What constitutes a feeling of insignificance? Lack of encouragement from your boss? The nagging sense that you are merely a replaceable part? Odds are, if you're a high-need-for-achievement type, prestige and pay are not enough--you need to feel that you matter to your organization. But according to leadership expert Thomas DeLong, many organizations lack the consciousness to address issues of significance and meaning among their people--they are too focused on productivity and profits. In this chapter, DeLong offers ways for you to diagnose your place within your organization and craft an approach for overcoming this paralyzing anxiety that can render you unable to change and grow. Self-assessment questions and practical advice will help you find the recognition that keeps you achieving. This chapter was originally published as Chapter 5 of "Flying Without a Net: Turn Fear of Change into Fuel for Success."
