Leading requires that you not only get out of your comfort zone and lead without being the expert but that you also learn to build trust with people you don’t necessarily appreciate immediately. Those micro-cultures make all the different in team engagement and team performance. Easily said but not so easily done. What do you need to understand about trust, yourself and your approach that can create the kind of culture people want to be a part of and where performance follows?

💡 About the show:
There is no growth in comfort and no comfort in growth. Business today typically values and promotes leaders for their subject expertise. Leaders who have command of the details and execute based on knowledge and experience are highly respected. However, to grow as a leader you have to get out of your comfort zone – that means learning to lead without just being the expert. Learn to gain the trust and respect of a team that might know more than you do. Get comfortable with ambiguity and with not having all the information. Develop the skills and confidence to lead in a different way.

For female leaders, subject expertise is usually the source of their confidence. Learning to lead outside your comfort zone is one step for breaking through the glass ceiling. The show’s purpose is to give you tips on how can you develop the capability to lead – to get out of your comfort zone.

Sometimes we can learn a lot about leading a business team by stepping outside the business world and examining a successful sports team. In sports, if you want to win at the top level, there are so many things you have to do well beyond just the physical skills - such as building a strong team culture, mentally preparing for adversity and building the right leadership model for your mission. While not all sports require the same level of teaming, sailing does. Thus, it’s a great place to look at how teams win and lose.

I have watched several high performing leaders take two steps up in their career at once, land themselves on the executive committee and find that they are not prepared for the challenges of operating at that level. The fallout is not good for the individual, the top team or the organization. What are they missing? What does it take to be ready to participate at the top level of an organization? How do you communicate with the CEO and other C-suite leaders? How do you find and sustain your confidence?

Leaders do need to understand their core values because these values drive behavior, relationships and decisions. Having clear values gives a bottom line for making tough decisions. Clear values help you know when to say no and stand your ground, rather than getting swept along with the tide of whatever is happening at their company. And clear values help leaders maintain their authentic identity in the midst of all the changes organizations require. The challenge is how to understand your values at a meaningful level. How can you do more than say you stand for honestly, customers and trust – something everyone says or should say?
