12. Five way to avoid some of major global leadership pitfalls Switch your frame of reference. Can you turn off your leadership autopilot and be open to other ideas, views, needs and assumptions? Look for commonalities. As you seek to notice and find value in difference, don't lose sight of what is shared. Seeing and appreciating similarities helps soften the burden of difference. Be curious. To see and understand others' frames of reference, you need to seek them out. Genuine curiosity and openness go a long way toward bringing you cultural agility.

13. Reflect and learn. In the rush of travel, constant deadlines and 'round-the-clock management, many of us miss opportunities to grow as leaders and improve our business outcomes. When you travel or work with a new group of people, be sure to process the experience. Champion the ideas of others. When you find value or expertise that has been unseen or ignored, spread the word. This may require checking your own ego or encouraging others in the organization to rethink their cultural assumptions.
