DummkopfStuff

Dummkopf is a German expression for "blockhead" or "stupid person."

Those of us in leadership roles can appear to be a dummkopf when we:

  • Procrastinate.
  • Avoid difficult conversations.
  • Assume the status quo will stay so.
  • Re-deploy plans that failed the first time.
  • Think and act from a short-term perspective.
  • Fail to mentor new or young players on the team.
  • Don't do our homework, and don't hold others accountable for doing theirs.
We are wise to dodge our inner dummkopf.
