Leading: Even When It's Scary


Welcome Back, Reader

​

​

Leading can be very scary

...and not just around Halloween. πŸŽƒ

​

There is no job manual.

There is no one way to do it.

​

It is hard.

It's all on you... the outcome, the issues, the mistakes.

​

Every day can be a struggle.

Everyone adds to the pressure.

​

But, it can also be very rewarding

When you realize the team trusts you.

When you understand how much they appreciate you.

​

When you see your team win.

When you see them grow and accomplish more than you ever expected.

​

Just realize...

You are not alone.

You are making a difference.

​

It is worth it.

They need you...

  • Your team
  • Your colleagues
  • Your company

​

Because good leaders are hard to find.

Because we need you!

​

Welcome Back, Reader What does it mean to lead with empathy? Do you know a leader who struggles with managing conflict? If you shift the focus away from the word "conflict" and, instead, focus on the intent of helping someone to improve, the conversation gets easier. Do you know a team or an individual who is burned out (or headed that way)? Let's look at why that might be: Are they afraid to speak up about having too much to do? Are they trying to prove themselves to someone? Does it make...

Welcome Back, Reader It's been said... but it deserves repeating Yes, it feels like it would be easier if only you had THAT title. But I've witnessed too many who get THAT title... and still think they need the next one to make a difference. The truth is that it was never about the title. No one ELSE can give you the permission that you believe you need to make an impact. If people look to you for advice... If they feel comfortable coming to you when there is an issue... If you make others...
