<p>Martin Dubin is a clinical psychologist, serial entrepreneur, business coach, and adviser to C-suite executives and Silicon Valley entrepreneurs. He has founded several companies, including a multimillion-dollar health-care company where he also served as CEO. He is the author of <em>Blindspotting: How to See What’s Holding You Back as a Leader</em> (<a href="https://amzn.to/44L1Ps1">Amazon</a>, <a href="https://bookshop.org/a/90226/9798892790536">Bookshop</a>)*.</p>
<p>Whenever I ask leaders, “What’s getting in the way of you moving forward?” the most common answer I hear is, “Myself.” In this episode, Marty and I explore what’s likely holding you back and how you can take the first steps to get traction.</p>
<h3 id="key-points">Key Points</h3>
<ul>
<li>Many leaders don’t recognize the need for change and succumb to an identity blindspot.</li>
<li>You don’t have to change your identity, but there’s a mismatch between role and identity, that’s a major problem.</li>
<li>Shifting your identity is not changing who you are. Identities help us to sort through people and situations so we know who we are in relation to them.</li>
<li>An identity that many have worked before can get in the way today. Common ones are: imposter, independent thinker, rule follower, unworthy, entitled, rebel, and peacemaker.</li>
<li>Look back through your calendar over the past three months and determine how well your activities match up with the identity your role demands.</li>
<li>Embody the new identity you are aiming to shift to, even if you’re not yet feeling it.</li>
