Professional Development

Rarely are leaders asked to explain how they get their results; they “just do it!” They know they are successful, but they can’t pinpoint how or why. Many wonder what their followers see in them. While assessing what we do right can be difficult to pin down, I know how to help leaders find vocabulary so they can inspire, mentor, and track their successes.

The ability to scale (grow) and sustain (keep growing) your business is a key element to success. If you are being asked to do more or to change, it’s very hard to react appropriately when you don’t have a handle on what is assuring your success. I will give you those steps and vocabulary.

Does your company measure success by the numbers you are meeting? Numbers are not goals; they are only metrics (measurements of a goal). Being able to make systematic and behavioral changes within the results you create is at the heart of meeting or exceeding your numerical goals. Spoiler Alert! At the heart of financial success are behavior and team inspiration.

Leaders need to be confident and ready to teach, mentor, and inspire others. Teams need your leadership to be innovative, agile, and flexible. Influential leaders are equipped to pass along their wisdom and knowledge by creating a vocabulary and a vision for winning! Winning teams meet their financial goals.

When team members experience the opportunity to develop and grow their business acumen, they can develop as future leaders, successors, and innovators. Teams who have a vision become results-driven and able to track their progress. Without a communicated strategy and vision, it’s difficult to stay away from daily tactical challenges that pull leaders into firefighting and micro-managing. Part of your strategy needs to be mentoring and developing others. Building on your skillsets and those of your subordinates makes you more promotable, more influential, and valued as an asset within your company and industry.

Understanding your own talents and approach is a precursor to appreciating others for theirs. By pinpointing your specific talents and skills, you will understand:

  1. Your natural “go-to” style for tackling challenges and opportunities.
  2. The genius talents your leaders, peers, and teams see in only you.
  3. How to best coach, influence, and mentor others.
  4. Why teams struggle and how to help them work together peacefully.
  5. And most importantly, how you are valued and perceived as an asset to an organization. Your brand is why people hire you.
