“Have a purpose, trace your life” LAO TSEU
We often talk about pressure, difficult decisions, and the resilience expected from the CEO. But one subject remains largely taboo: Loneliness. And yet, it is one of the heaviest burdens to bear.
From the outside, a leader inspires confidence, embodies stability, makes decisions and reassures teams.
But in this position of pillar, who can you talk to without fear of worrying, weakening your image or sowing doubt? Behind the posture of the leader is often a heavy silence, an absence of space to express doubts or fatigue.
Many CEOs share this erroneous belief: Asking for Help Would Be an Admission of Weakness. On the contrary, it is often a sign of lucidity and maturity.
The strongest are not those who isolate themselves, but those who know how to surround themselves:
Joining a group of leaders (club, mastermind, professional network) allows you to get out of isolation and confront your ideas in a caring and confidential environment.
Sharing doubts with trustworthy people does not make you lose credibility. This humanizes leadership and reinforces team engagement.
Professional coach, psychologist, mentor... being listened to by a neutral third party allows you to regain clarity, energy, and make better decisions.
The strength of a leader is not measured by his ability to endure everything alone, but by his ability to Trusting the Right People At the right time.
Loneliness should no longer be the norm. There are solutions, spaces for speech, resources. You still have to agree to enter them.
Because every leader deserves to be surrounded, a space for exchange can change everything. Let's talk about it.
