Nicely done.

The ‘fast lane’ metaphor is an excellent choice to make your point clearly and memorably.

Your four points offer good metrics for self assessment with easily recognized symptoms of the problem.

But now, where’s the solution? You have my attention . . . what’s next? THAT is the post I’m interested to see now!

Thanks for this post . . . and the fast lane image . . . I’ll savor both for a long time to come.

Self awareness, emotional intelligence , courage and knowing what your values are favorites of mine in leadership.

The metaphor of the highway and the fast lane is supurb. The metaphor has so many dynamics to manifest situations. Depending how you drive your car, what type of vehicle you are driving and what speed your going, can determind how you arrive at your destination! The learnings, triumphs and tribulations in leadership can be reflected well in this metaphor. Very Nice!
