The first step in correcting your blind spots is figuring out what and where they are. Luckily, there is one thing in particular that throws them into sharp relief: mistakes.

Mistakes show us the areas in which we lack knowledge, competence and understanding, and thus represent areas which might be our blind spots. It is therefore crucial that you analyze your mistakes, especially the ones you keep making, to uncover the blind spots that caused them in the first place.

But your blind spots aren’t overcome by the simple awareness that they exist. Often leaders will ignore blind spots, thinking they’re trivial. Sometimes, fixing a blind spot requires a considerable amount of effort and change, and it’s so much easier to stick with the status quo, which requires less effort.
