Organizations who are ready to understand their teams more deeply and grow together must first understand...
1. THE PEOPLE YOU WORK WITH ARE HUMAN BEINGS BEFORE TITLES
A hallmark of a strong team leader is the ability to anticipate your employee’s needs. You need to understand them to guide them. By making the effort to get to know your colleagues as people first, beyond their titles, you will be able to create a harmony that leads to a deeper connection. By incorporating compassion into your leadership style, you’ll create a more comfortable and engaging work environment.
2. IT IS OKAY NOT TO HAVE ALL THE ANSWERS
It’s okay to be vulnerable. Human beings can’t possibly know all of the answers, so why should you place that pressure on yourself, let alone your colleagues? Tap into skills and feelings you already have and let yourself feel valued by what you can bring to the table. Remember, shared vulnerability is the one thing all human beings experience. Let empathetic leadership pilot your teams to success.
3. THE SMALLEST CHANGES ARE THE ONES WITH THE BIGGEST IMPACT
When changes are too drastic, you may feel overwhelmed and are less likely to build good habits. Small lifestyle changes are easier to achieve and maintain. Lead by example and start with simple kindnesses everyday. Expressive leadership fosters
security and confidence.
We have full lives that can include coping with mental health challenges, caring for sick family members, raising children, and so much more. Paul reminds audiences that leaders who create an environment where individuals feel valued and appreciated – and feel safe bringing their full selves to work – clear the way for their employee’s personal and professional success and development.
