I'm flipping the script today - Instead of talking about how we could do better, I want to talk about acknowledging your accomplishments, strengths, and gifts.
Take some time to write them all down - whether they're professional or personal. 📝
Next time you come up against a challenge that you're not sure you can meet, pull that list out, and remember that you can meet this challenge because look at all you've already accomplished!!
Last week, I asked you to flip the script - instead of focusing on where you could do better or develop yourself, I asked you to write down what you do well - your strengths, gifts and accomplishments. Now, here's why...
Use that list to be your own hype person! What is a hype person? Someone that talks or writes about something or someone with the intent of getting others excited or interested.
Use your list to:
🔥 Inspire self-confidence in who you are and what you bring to the table
🔥 Engage and excite others by letting your light shine
🔥 Approach your next big ask with confidence
Let's talk self-awareness!! Did you know that there are two types of self-awareness?
Internal self-awareness is how clearly we see our own values, passions, aspirations, fit with our environment, reactions, and impact on others. Internal self-awareness is associated with higher job and relationship satisfaction, and happiness and helps reduce anxiety, stress, and depression.
External self-awareness means understanding how other people view us. Research shows that people who know how others see them are more skilled at showing empathy and taking others’ perspectives. For leaders, this is critical to having better relationships with your employees, increased employee satisfaction, and being an effective leader.
Are you curious about internal and external self-awareness? Do you want better employee engagement and a culture where your leaders contribute directly to employee satisfaction AND the bottom line? Let’s talk!
Many people think that resilience is a trait - that you're born with it or you're not. But what if I told you resilience is a skill! You can build resilience as an individual leader or as an organization!
Are you a resilient leader? Does your organization have resilient leaders? Are they able to bounce back quickly from setbacks and meet challenges with optimism? Are you able to pivot quickly when things don't turn out the way you expected? Are you able to see the positive in challenging situations? Resilience is key to doing all of these things!
With all of the challenges in our environment, why wouldn't you want to be more resilient?
