“How can I leverage my collected wisdom and experience to launch a new project, pivot in a new direction, or leap to the top of the career ladder?”
Our people are counting on us to keep them calm, motivated, and away from the proverbial ledge. And we will. Because we’ve all been here before.
Decide today to stop settling, stop waiting for the conditions to be exactly perfect, stop hoping for a smooth, clear path forward—forge your own.
Today, I’m getting into the nitty-gritty of how we, as Courageous Leaders, can be stronger allies for our incredibly valuable yet overlooked and underappreciated team members.
Why should we go out of our way to sponsor, advocate for, champion, or amplify colleagues like women, people of color, LGBTQ+, people who are differently-abled, or anyone who doesn’t fit the traditional mold? The stats on that are pretty clear.
Skill building is about waking up every morning and asking, “What can I do today to teach and refine my team’s skills so they can reach their goals faster?”
You’ve got to find a way to re-engage your team against goals that are starting to sound like old news. So how do you find a new and inspiring way to talk about your goals?
To date, the Barbie® movie has brought in a total of 1.45 billion U.S. dollars worldwide. It was the highest-grossing movie of 2023, the highest-grossing movie directed by a woman ever, the fifteenth biggest release in motion picture history, and Warner Bros.’ highest-grossing film of all time.
And yet, Golden Globes comedian host Jo Koy called it a movie “based on a plastic doll with big boobs.” Ugh.
Let’s pull up our calendars right now and block out time to reflect on the goals we’re setting and commitments we’re making with ourselves and our teams for 2024.
As this year comes to an end, and the Year of the Dragon dawns, take a minute to leverage the lessons of 2023 to make yourself a better, stronger leader for your team in 2024.
