3 Key Missing Ingredients in Your Leadership
Episode #037 Host: Tammy J. Bond
Great leaders always look for ways to improve themselves and unlock their potential. In this episode of Playing In the Sandbox, I take you through the three key ingredients that might be missing from your leadership style. Whether you’re a new leader or you think you have it all figured out, listen in! I know you’re going to learn something new.
- The best leaders are vulnerable and authentic in how they approach and communicate with their teams.
- Our culture is obsessed with flawlessness, but projecting flawlessness can come across as inauthentic. Embracing vulnerability as your superpower can help you build trust within your team!
- Another ingredient in leadership is visionary curiosity. Asking questions and exploring trends can help us with being proactive and “future-proofing.”
- After asking great questions, great leaders experiment without fear of failure. Taking sensible chances can help you build your creativity and resilience.
- Hold the eye-roll - as leaders, it’s important that we build empathy and emotional intelligence. If you’re not sure where to start, try journaling to develop your self-awareness!
- If we don’t understand our own triggers, it’s hard to see when emotions come up in other people. When we know how to manage our emotions, we can model that for others.
