Bow and wake effect

change connection mindset May 30, 2023

I had several people reach out to me on my latest IG posts on @jimmybleadership this week related to my Bow and Wake post so I thought I would share it here too.

Just like a boat, as leaders, when we act, we create bow wave, moving things out of the way and impacting the environment around us. This can create an opportunity for some people, who, like dolphins can ride that wave and play in the surge. Or it can be crushing like a Greenpeace boat and an oil tanker meeting in the ocean.

At the same time, after our actions, we leave a wake behind us from being there. This can be a calm, serene space or it can be full of churn and eddies.

Whilst surging through the ocean of business, we will encounter resistance. In addition, the faster we push the more resistance we get. This means that energy is required to keep pushing and going too hard for too long can lead to exhaustion, burnout and a drop in productivity. For you and for the people in the bow wave.

What I'd love for you to think about is what type of bow wave you want to create? And what is the wake that you want to leave behind? If you think about this in terms of the people, and the interactions you have with them, what can you do to shift the environment you create so that it's a more positive and more beneficial space for them.

For you, what can you do to reduce the energy drain for yourself and reduce the resistance you have to move through to get the results you want?

Look forward to hearing your thoughts and I'll speak to you soon.
