Message from Lee McCroskey:

Thanks for tuning in. If you didn't, I still like you. 

 

We discussed how most people deal with problems and what they ask themselves, and how we should frame our questions (the Outcome Frame) to generate better solutions. What do I want? How will I know when I have it? Great questions.

 

"Remember, clarity is power--the more clear you are about exactly what it is you want, the more your brain knows how to get there."

Message from Lee:

Hey everyone--today we talked about how to get "unstuck", and I offered a number of questions you can ask yourself. Remember, whomever can get perspective quickly, wins. How do you unstuck? What is your method of "snapping out" of frustration?

Message from Lee:

Thanks for getting online today. We discussed strategies to destress your life and career. I am including my PowerPoint in case you want to click along as you listen to my thoughts.

 

And remember, thoughts are just thoughts! Onward, upward!

We are finishing (for now) our series on Self-Awareness. I have a list of 20 or so "Career Stallers & Stoppers." Listen to this recording and rank yourself. Where are your blind spots? Which of these could be holding you back?

 

Have a great week!

Today's leadership call continued with our theme of self-awareness, focusing on our strengths. Remember, any strength you have can be overdone, or overused. Then it becomes a weakness.

Think through your strengths and talk about your tendency to default to your strengths--always. How can this be detrimental?

Balance!

Message from Lee:

 

So, are you more aware of who you are, your strengths/weaknesses, and how others see you? Where are your "circles"? Close? Far apart?

 

If you'd like to explore more of what we talked about today, here is the link to a good online assessment:

What can you do to sell more ties? (A great "what" question!)

 

Talk to you next week!

Hey everyone! We've started down the exploratory path of Self-Awareness for leaders. Rather than sending you a link to a strength-finder assessment online, we talked about discovering your strengths through STORIES. I shared two ways to get feedback from people who know you well. Here's the recording; go explore.

Hey everyone, we dipped into a topic so vital to leaders: self-awareness. Here are a few questions to consider as you think about how you come across to others:

 

What role does self-awareness play in success?

What practices expand self-awareness?

Who do you know that is self-aware? How would you define this?

 

Have a great week, and be aware of who you are, and how others perceive you.

Thanks for joining our leadership call today on the Power of Words. If you missed it, here is the recording. We talked about intentionally selecting different words to describe your experiences, and how you can change everything, including your attitude and productivity, by consciously using different words.

 

Work on transforming your vocabulary beginning this week.

Hi LGFG Winners! This is Lee, and though I'm not with you this week in person, live, I am with you in spirit, recorded. We have been discussing the power of questions, and I decided to go deep on these.
