  • 94. Being Quiet Harms Your Credibility (and what to do about it)

     It won’t matter if I don’t offer my ideas. They already have a lot to think about. My ideas are not important

    It pains me when I hear a super smart, creative, and gifted person express the opinion that it doesn’t matter when they don’t offer their thoughts in meetings and social situations, and that their contributions are not important, therefore there is no chance they’re missed.

    Many people have trouble properly valuing themselves, for a variety of reasons. Work environments that encourage you to feel valued are more likely to function well in a crisis, as well as work better in an everyday way.

    To those who have trouble valuing themselves - let me just say – “Been there — done that!”. If you are someone who thinks that your opinions are not important, you know you’re not truly engaged, and therefore you inadvertently harm the organization by withholding your ideas and visions.

    High-performance Coaching can help you to correct this misperception of your role and its importance.

  • 91. The Expressive Social Style - The Strongest Energy in the Room
    Those among us with Expressive social styles are often the strongest energy in the room. They enjoy involvement, excitement and lots of interpersonal interaction.

    Moreover, they tend to make friends easily because they’re very sociable, they enjoy stimulating conversation, and they’re enthusiastic and good at involving and motivating others.

    Despite these admirable qualities, Expressives are often  perceived by others as excitable, impulsive, undisciplined, dramatic, manipulative, ambitious, egotistical and overly reactive. Other than that — they’re great people.

  • 89. The Pros and Cons of the Action-Oriented "Driver" Social Style

    An individual’s social style is determined by behavioral patterns in the interactions with their peers. Some studies suggest that social style may influence the way in which an individual’s performance is evaluated.

    Drivers are action-oriented people who focus on results and outcomes rather than relationships. They can be seen as impersonal, practical and dominating by others.

    Knowing social styles can help strengthen relationships, improve communication, and predict behavior. As a businessperson and a professional, you can develop a customized approach to each one of your customers and team members based on their individual style. This will enable personalization and more desirable outcomes.

    Social styles are also an excellent tool for improving emotional intelligence and building relationships with your team.

  • 88. Social Ease and Getting Comfortable in the Spotlight

    One of our most basic human needs is to feel seen, heard, and understood. While the workdays of entrepreneurs and professionals are filled with appointments, they can still feel cut off, as time for connections, conferences, and networking increasingly disappears.

    My clients have told me that one of the most valuable things they get out of their coaching is finding their voice and speaking up with confidence. That can help them make decisions that use their strengths to make connections, to build relationships, to sell, and meet their goals.

    So what can you do about this situation? You can start by being present for yourself. When is the last time you looked yourself in the eye and saw a special, unique person in the mirror looking back at you?

    Make an effort to identify opportunities where you can step into the spotlight and speak live — freely, calmly, extemporaneously. Show them you are an expert. Show them you are on top of your game. Show them the value you bring.

  • 87. Becoming a Social Connector
    Social Connectors play an important role in our lives, and having even a small amount of this “gift” will serve you well.

    A connector is simply someone who is relationship-focused in her/his approach to life, to people, and to business. He/she has a certain way of thinking and behaving. They act and get results with ease because they have a level of credibility and trust in and from their network.

    Anyone can seek to be a connector. Learning these skills will make you more at ease and help to extinguish any feelings of social inferiority, as connectors are most often looked upon favorably.

  • 86. Social Styles part 2 - The Analytical Communicator

    Our “Social style” is the persona we choose to use in interactions. Being aware of your own social style helps you to develop relationships, particularly in business.

    The analytical social style type is characterized as deep and thoughtful. “Analyticals” have a tendency to be serious and purposeful individuals. They set very high standards, so they have very high standards of performance, both personally and professionally. Analyticals are orderly and organized and don't mind taking time to over-analyze.

    When speaking with others, your tone clarifies and conveys meaning. A phrase as simple as “I don't know” can be taken in a number of different ways depending on how you decide to express it. Your tone can not only affect how people perceive you but also their willingness to listen to you – especially in business.

    Today, I’ll show you how to use words and tone of voice to be the strongest energy in the room.
