Every Chance To Lead = A Chance To Partner

05/22/23 • 21 min

This week we chat about how we build great organisations and workplaces by creating healthy connections with each other.
We often forget that businesses are only made up of people. We get obsessed with ROI, value creation, impact, deadlines, looking good, being seen and deliverables etc - in other words, jargon that dehumanises workplaces.
This is about aligning shoulder to shoulder around what truly matters...
Which is challenging!
Why?
Because we fear being vulnerable and using 'soft skills' (emotional intelligence)
We get stuck in power struggles, hierarchies and play by invisible rules that aren't real unless we play by them
We make assumptions about what the other person thinks of us ( truth is - they feel the same)
There's a power differential or stress - one person has more organisational 'power/control'

It starts and ends with 'U'...
Supporting you to lead and to shift the status quo forever by taking one human step in a smarter direction.

How Do You Stand Up With Confidence EVEN IF You Don't Feel It

Send us a text

In this week's episode we chat about how to take small solid bite-sized actions on your own behalf to stand up with confidence even if you don't feel it.
It's easy to get stuck in your comfort zone of stress and keep working harder, doing more, trying to fix things or rescue people or situations - this may feel familiar and safe.
But, by taking one small new or different step into a small amount of discomfort, (which IS uncomfortable) by stepping up and moving forwards on your own behalf, you will feel more grounded, in control, and that you have power over what's happening.

This is about your inner leader... And how to take small solid bite-sized actions on your own behalf to unstick what stops you.

Ego In Leadership - The Good, The Bad & The Ugly

Send us a text

Part one of a three part series, this week we chat about ego in leadership.
What is it?
What is the difference between a healthy /unhealthy ego and what does that look like?
Ego is a learnt pattern of behaviour. It's often hard to admit and hard to accept and is also something we weren't necessarily taught about.
But... By being more aware of where you stand, how your ego shows up and having a greater understanding and awareness of others, you can model what healthy looks like and infect the people around you in a positive way.
What ego state do you take to work and what is the impact of that on the people around you?
