Are YOU creating the VIBE or is the Virus responsible?
Have you chosen to challenge the situation or cope?
What have you adapted, adopted & averted?
These appear to be the common VIBE Virtues of a Virtual & Remote Workplace:
More sleep
Dressing comfortably
Travel stress diminished
Food of desire on demand
Well-being resilience strengthening – exercise & stretching
Desk of desire - using a virtual background
Bring your pet to the office, everyday
Personalities & office politics less noticeable
Learning, creativity & relationship building in bountiful supply
Yet, for some the Virus is responsible for these violations:
- Limited space for desk & seating
- Lack of team & social engagement
- Home roles competing with work roles
- Lack of diary & daily structure
- Bedroom to Boardroom mindset confusion
- Zoom Zombieland
Self-Leadership is how you choose to view & act in the world.
You’re accountable for your VIBE.
You can create the VIBE.
You can challenge the situation.
You can adapt, adopt & avert.
LEADERSHIP FUNDAMENTALS - PART THREE
Preparing to focus on your leadership effectiveness is like ensuring your car is roadworthy before your holiday.
Checking the tyres, petrol and oil gauge enables you to concentrate on the road ahead.
Disregarding these FUNDAMENTAL checks will slow your movement from the ‘next lane’ (future focused) back to the ‘now lane’ (current focus) which could cause a traffic jam.
Your LEADERSHIP FUNDAMENTALS which will prepare your movement to the next lane include:
FEARS – acknowledge what’s stopping you, address them or understand them – don’t let them prevent your drive to Leadership
FLAWS – identify if they can be fixed or flip the focus to your features – women dwell on what needs to be fixed rather than what can be flaunted
FEATURES – be proud of what you’re good at, articulate widely and experiment how you can share these across contexts. If you’re a great speaker – offer to speak at a conference.
FEELINGS – leverage your emotional intelligence, differentiate yourself by speaking to your emotions & feelings and use your emotional radar in your leadership
FACTS – do a fact check on yourself – what do you and don’t you know about your operating system
FINGERPRINT – be comfortable with the fact that you are unique as your fingerprint, there is no one else like you and there is no need to imitate others
FORTITUDE – gather your resilience to weather the journey of change which is inevitable if you’re reviewing and experimenting with your leadership
Which FUNDAMENTAL FACTOR will halt your drive and what do you need to do get into the next lane?
Investing the time to create strategies to work on these LEADERSHIP FUNDAMENTALS will accelerate your future effectiveness and movement to the next lane.
Activities addressing these fundamentals are included in my The Female Factor programs.
