Do the Work that Energizes You!

Working with your opposite allows you to stay in your natural role as a Visionary or Integrator™ while enjoying the benefits of both intuitive and systems-focused leadership. Jeff & Rhonda will share their own experiences as a visionary and an integrator working together on Inflection Point Moments as an example of how intuitive and systems-focused leaders can work together successfully – even if there are moments of challenge (and friction).

Visionaries and Integrators™ bring different, but equally valuable gifts to the table. A business needs both the vision and the action to be successful. You rarely find that in one person. Most of us are good at one or the other, and when you try to be both, it’s exhausting and ineffective. There’s no reason to get burned out trying to do it all—the other side exists!

What does it mean to invite your team members into the right role and then equip them to do their best work? Do they need to have specific tools? Do they need additional training? Equip, empower, and release them to do what they do best. Then get out of the way because they're going to do much better than you are in that area! Are you ready to let go?

What’s the difference between being a boss and being a leader? Just the question can make you laugh – or cry, depending on your experiences with leaders (or not) in your work experience. Join us to unpack the difference – and learn WHY it’s so important to lead your team instead of being bossy.

As we return from our Summer Break and Open Season 3 of Inflection Point Moments, join us to explore the value of Relationship Management, the final domain of Emotional Intelligence. Using an example from Rhonda’s life, we’ll explore the value of each of the five competencies of Relationship Management.

Self-management is being intentional about how you show up with your emotions. When you have emotional self-control, you respond to situations instead of reacting. You can choose your response to your emotions because you see options through adaptability, achievement orientation, and positive outlook. Creating a culture where emotions are legitimate frees us up to see new opportunities and lean into them, because we’re not captive to emotions run wild or unacknowledged.

Margin gives you the freedom and space to manage your emotions and find ways to achieve your goals in your current circumstances. It is easy to be flooded by your emotions. One way to combat this is creating margin in your calendar. Margin allows you to stay grounded and emotions won’t overwhelm you as easily.

You are in charge and driving the bus, not your emotions - emotions are just indicators. They are clues you need to notice, not a cause for immediate action. When you manage your emotions and practice seeing situations from more than one perspective, it strengthens your adaptability muscle and will help you discover new and better ways of doing things.

You are a business owner. Most likely you had to overcome fear to be a business owner. But does hidden fear underlie your decisions? Being aware of your emotions is one thing. Knowing what to do with them is another. Emotional self-management is key to harnessing your emotions for business and personal growth. Join us as we explore the HOW of harnessing your emotions, so you and your team can go further faster.
