What's interesting to me is that this type of thinking also overlaps with, or is found in, a variety of circumstances/ways of being, like:
- Unskilled (despite experience level)
- Beginner
- Under-trained
- Unsupported or under-supported role or assignment
- Self-centered (egoic-hero model)
- Little-picture Thinker
- Fearful attitude
... It's helpful to be able to refer to these other lenses in turn, as a way of finding helpful solutions.
- ChrisMarshallNY 4y agoI’d say that almost all of those scenarios (maybe all -not sure about the hero) lend themselves to the person being in “panic mode.” eg., “stressed.” Sort of like the classic “Lucy and the Chocolate Factory” routine[0]. I’d also suggest a management deficit, if those cases are too severe. [0] https://youtu.be/NkQ58I53mjk https://youtu.be/NkQ58I53mjk
