Five Leadership Lessons for Women

Five Leadership Lessons for Women


Listening and discovering.

That sums up my activity over the past few days.

I’ve been immersed in the company of awesome women, with the role to ask them about leadership.

And I must share five immediate lessons for women, from women who are talking from experience:


🔹Get out of your own way
Women are their own hurdles whilst they continue to doubt their own ability.

🔹Find your voice
Know what is unique about you and determine your passions and then let others know by being visible about this passion.

🔹Find your Women’s Club
Let other women help you, guide you, teach you and be there for you to catch you when you fall or celebrate your success.

🔹Don’t bow to the biases
There are too many biases that prevent women progressing in their careers. Keep moving past these biases to seek out the solutions to your problems.

🔹Don’t accept NO
Create your own competition to hear as many No responses as possible. The more you hear No positions you closer to hearing a Yes.

VIBE - Create your 2022 Vibe

And just like that, it’s almost February.

January is heading towards the back door and school and work are knocking at the front door.

So many of us have been caught off guard – either from the distractions of working from home (sitting in the spa) or avoiding the plague.

So many people have shared their feelings of their energy being zapped.

This calls for my multipurpose Vitamin VIBE to get us into the groove, to feel positively prepared to work with colleagues and clients.

Whilst it’s not a magic pill, it’s a trusted and tested method to focused on contributing to the future.

Here’s my recipe’s four ingredients:

·       Vision

·       Values

·       Virtues

·       Voice

Method:

·       ponder your desired future (Feb 2023), note what you see yourself doing, what you’ve achieved and the feeling of enjoyment

·       what guided you in your decision making to arrive there,

·       which behaviours were essential in being that person and

·       what and how did you communicate.

If you need the slowed down version, Let’s Talk. Let me guide you or your team to find their VIBE.

The Great Reputation is The Great Resolution

THE GREAT REPUTATION

Arriving at the status of an INDESTRUCTIBLE TEAM is reputation enhancing.

Whilst it might feel like an unachievable goal, it is an opportunity to conquer.

Being in a position to advise and lead others due to your effective and determined approach to working together is what makes work desirable and purposeful.

What many fear in the current climate, can be resolved if more focus is on how teams function, operate, and communicate.

Like anything, commitment is sought from every person. Every individual relinquishes their ego to become a member of the team. Sometimes it’s the strongest link that will cause the destruction.

The GREAT REPUTATION is the GREAT RESOLUTION.

 Here’s the road to conquer:

RESPONSIBLY is required and controlled by each individual enabling each person to equally influence themselves and others.

RESPECT for each others’ contribution inspires and energizes the group to operate as a team.

These first two components of the journey increase the psychological SAFETY of the team and RELATIONSHIPS become more authentic, connected, and feel permanent.

Skill development and a growth mindset enable team RESILIENCE to flourish.

Which RESULTS in innovation with the application of new STRENGTHS in situations.

As a consequence, the team acquires a REPUTATION for their approach.

At what stage on the journey to an INDESTRUCTIBLE REPUTATION is your team?
