A young Oklahoma little leaguer was accidentally hit in the head by a ball.... and the pitcher was devastated.
So the kid who was hit walked out to the pitcher’s mound to let the pitcher know that he’s going to be okay.
Now THAT is sportsmanship.

Great demonstration of the power of humility, forgiveness and choosing reconciliation over offense. This is the kind of response we need to encourage and develop in the people we lead.
Just a couple quick reflections:
1. Take time to observe and determine the facts before reacting. When the batter is on first base he watches the pitcher with a posture of humility and a desire for understanding in the context of patience.
2. Choose to act with mindfulness and sensitivity towards the offender and the observing world. Once the batter observes the context of the pitcher (unintentional mistake that devesates the pitcher) the batter makes a brave decision to approach in a posture of humility. Pace and time ensure this doesn't turn into a larger conflict.
3. Forgive. Privately, the batter seeing the pitcher's sorrow, addresses the situation and demonstrates true forgiveness.
4. Rally. Unify the relationship, the team and outside observers around higher values, and virtues.

In every setback in life we have a choice in our response. Like I always say, “most people don’t get up in the morning intending to harm anyone.” How do we make this world better? Remembering we’re all human.
This video isn’t about bias but it sure is a great illustration of how unconscious bias behavior impacts others. As the ball, like our words, travels between the sender of the message (the pitcher) to the receiver of the message (the batter), landing with brute force, enough to knock the wind of out of you. Yes, words can have an impact that can bring us to our knees, figuratively and literally. It is also a great illustration of choices. We can chose our response to challenging, even painful situations. As human beings we have an opportunity every day to make a difference in this world through our choices and our leadership is the driving force.
Leadership isn’t about a title it’s about our action. The first place we learn about leadership is how we lead ourselves. It begins with the decisions we make instinctually, every day. Having a keen awareness of self and others.
What has the greatest impact in this video? The unintended mistake, or the response to it? It’s easy to be impacted by an offense and walk away hurt, holding a grudge or worse internalizing an unintended consequence as a personal attack. Instead, we can choose to have empathy, to reach across the isle in love and help the person understand the mistake and the impact and give them a safe place to learn, grow so both people can move forward whole. That’s how we grow together.
