Leadership is something that all of us will more than likely aspire to, whether it’s because of the security and money that a leadership role can offer, or if the management and leadership of others is a genuine interest that you strive towards.  

Often, we think that what makes a leader is the job title, Vice President, President, Manager. However, this isn’t always the case. In this episode I discuss the preconceptions of what comes with a leadership role, and what it means to actually be in a leadership role.  

 

Here are the highlights: 

(01:39) Security in leadership 

(05:15) It’s not always about you  

(08:06) Knowing the right moments 

(11:44) Being mindful and present

A huge part of the coaching process is self-awareness. Understanding who we are, what motivates us, and what our personal goals are. 

Before we put ourselves forward to guide and coach others, we need to have a clear understanding of what makes us tick. 

I believe that developing our self-awareness is crucial to understanding ourselves better, so we can not only learn from our mistakes, but also learn to embrace them and realise they are part of who we are- and of course, that ultimately helps us to become better coaches! 

In today’s episode I discuss my own experiences with ADHD, drama triangles and offer tips on how we can acknowledge our own imperfections. 

 

Here are the highlights: 

(01:02) ADHD 

(05:05) Not everything is personal 

(09:07) Misinterpretation 

(11:50) Guilt
