This post may hit some leaders straight in the heart. 💘
Leaders have a lot of pressure and obligation sitting on their shoulders and minds along their leadership journey.
Their equation of self-worth and self-awareness changes.
Here’s my weekend question for you to read and think about.
How can leaders lead without using their schooling, experience and insecurities as their identity?
Here are my strategies based on the what I am observing and seeing globally:
🔄 One way for leaders to lead without relying solely on their schooling, experience, and insecurities as their identity is to focus on their values and vision for the organization or team they are leading.
🔄 By developing a clear sense of purpose and direction, leaders can inspire and motivate their team members to work towards a common goal, regardless of their individual backgrounds or qualifications.
🔄 Additionally, leaders can build trust and credibility with their team members by actively listening to their concerns and ideas, and by valuing their contributions regardless of their level of experience or education.
🔄 Leaders who are able to create a culture of respect and inclusivity can foster a sense of belonging and collaboration that transcends individual identities and backgrounds.
🔄 Leaders can also seek out diverse perspectives and experiences to inform their decision-making and guide their leadership style.
🔄 By actively seeking out and valuing the input of team members with different backgrounds and perspectives, leaders can make more informed and inclusive decisions that reflect the needs and values of the entire team.
What’s in your playbook?
