EP030 | Inspiration vs Intimidation...in your Brand Experience, with Shelley Rostlund
In this episode:
I discuss the dichotomy of: is there a point when you think you are inspiring someone, but actually you are just throwing so much out there (in your passion to get it out), that you are quite frankly…intimidating people.
This conversation is (obviously) heavily tainted by my own subjective opinion on this. But I’d invite you to consider this dichotomy with me and get in touch to let me know your thoughts.
Why do I think this important? How we behave and project ourselves to the outside world, has an impact on who we attract to work with us and that affects our quality of life and work. It’s important to know when, and if, what you think of as inspiring is actually being experienced as intimating.
As consultants, coaches, mentors or advisers to others, I would hope we would really rather not intimate our clients. In my experience that has always been a tactic that disengages and shortens the life time you have with a client.
Join me in this conversation where I’m going to come at this from an observational point of view so that it helps you to calibrate where you sit on this spectrum.
