As a leader, it’s easy to get caught in the reaction trap, reacting instead of acting. This makes you unable to function effectively as a leader. Instead, today I offer some tips on how to be a conscious leader.
In this episode, I note the importance of being aware of your impact on the people around you. I explain why you need to know your triggers and be able to manage your responses to them. I share the value of self-awareness and of interrupting negative emotions before they gain steam. I warn that your team will mirror your values, good and bad. I also note the importance of being yourself.
