LEADERSHIP TRUTH # 2 - MASTERCLASS THURSDAY 5 SEPTEMBER - DON'T MISS IT!

TRUTH: People aren't motivated to come to work with you as an ambitious female leader and stay consistently motivated to perform at high levels because you offer:
- pickleball or table tennis matches at lunchtime
- free food and snacks
- remote work (with strict office days)
- free yoga classes or massages
- tick the box - 'wellness and leadership development' programs
They are tired of being:
āoverworked and discouraged or penalised for taking time off work
āundervalued, unappreciated and overlooked for promotions that go to friends and favourites of the 'boss.'
āin a competitive and fearful culture
ābullied, and their opinions, wants, and needs ignored
āunder constant, intense stress and pressure
Toxic work environments are a dealbreaker for many employees.
As many as 80% quit their jobs because of a toxic work culture (culture = behaviours that are accepted, created, or tolerated) created by poor-performing technical or profit-focused leaders.
One factor is an antidote to toxic work environments: emotionally intelligent leaders.
Here are ten emotional intelligence skills that every leader MUST develop:
1. Build trust
2. Self-awareness
3. Show empathy
4. Self-management (self-control, integrity, bias for action, optimism, resilience, stress management)
5. Relationship management (interpersonal effectiveness)
6. Encourage open, honest communication without repercussions
7. Be a courageous change maker
8. See the potential in others and focus on developing potential
9. Resolve conflict quickly where preserving relationships is key
10. Intentionality.
Are you unsure how to become a top 1% emotionally intelligent leader and want to become someone everyone wants to work with?
