What’s the role of a CEO?
Some would propose that it’s to assure the day-to-day operation of a business. To manage the daily agenda, checking off action items as they are achieved. I would argue, however, that the goal of a CEO is to help create the agenda, provide a vision for the masses. And yet in a world that deems we take a firmer control in our lives, the general movement among men is to shy away from setting the agenda of their relationship.
Some of the reasoning is “I’m too busy”, “Things are going great, why rock the boat”, and my personal favorite: “I want to make her happy; so we try to do things that she enjoys doing”.
Gentlemanly qualities require that we listen to our other half. And engaging in events that she will enjoy certainly symbolizes that you’re doing so. No woman would tell you different. However, we need to be sensitive to the idea that being overly accommodating may have you perceived weaker, and more importantly as “none interested” in the relationship. What she needs is a CEO, with an agenda setting mentally.
“Independent” Woman Warning…
Taking the lead with independent woman may seem that you’re swimming upstream. At time it might even feel unnatural as she “resist” your agenda setting ways. But know this: your agenda “setting” validates her. It rewards that part of her, which suggests her work titles, degrees where worth the pursuit, and more importantly, that she’s not lost any of her feminine qualities in the quest of these external trophies. It’s a find balance, but if done properly, enriches the relationship.
This weekend, before you ask her what she would like to do, you might want to rethink who’s setting the tone of the relationship and the consequences that may follow.
