Fair warning - long philosophical post coming 👇
It struck me as I was scrolling LinkedIn this morning, that most professionals in a given sector tend to view that sector as the most important piece to the success of an organization.
Now I'm not throwing shade - you should be passionate about what you do - but there's danger in trying to pigeonhole every business challenge you come across as uniquely solvable by your skillset or product.
It's really just confirmation bias repackaged.
Maybe it's because I've been fortunate to work in several different domains of technology over my career that I have some perspective on this - I've made the mistake of sector groupthink, and then seen it from the outside as I moved to the next domain.
In any case, it occurred to me that this is exactly the same type of problem that teams and departments within an organization fall into. Left unchecked, it can be an insidious "morale eater." Thinking our group is the most misunderstood, the other groups aren't doing what they should be doing, everything gets piled on us, etc., etc.
It's up to the leaders, yes, but it's really on EVERYONE to constantly realign our thinking on the subject, and constantly seek to redirect to a global view of how what we do affects others, and the organization as a whole.
Let's create opportunities to learn that other teams and departments have the same overburdening, same struggles, just in different ways.
TL;DR - let's exercise our EQ muscles in 2023, and encourage others to do the same.
