Anne-Marie reminds us of the reality of what we can and can't change when in a leadership position. And the binary nature can be profound when it comes to burnout.
This reminds me of Steven Covey's Circles of Influence concept, which distinguishes between things we can get closer to within our control (our circle of influence) and things we can't (our circle of concern).
Do check out Anne-Marie's book, The Quality Coach's Handbook.
