Woman Owned: The Growth Podcast for Women Entrepreneurs

The word "collaboration" usually has a positive connotation -- being productive as you work with others. In business, partnering with other people does not always have this outcome. There are fruitful collaborations that allow you and your partners to grow and there are those that leave you stressed, unproductive, and stagnant. How would you know which partnerships will help you soar?

Keep Reading >>

In this episode, I'm sharing why women tend to waste their time with partnerships and collaborations that go nowhere. I'm sharing how to recognize the signs of an unproductive collaboration, and where to get the information you need to develop the tools that will help you identify better partnerships in the future that will move you and your business forward.

"It is okay to say 'no,' to be strategic, to bow out of over commitments." - Eleanor Beaton

Today on the Fierce Feminine Leadership Podcast:

• What collaboration means
• The reality about collaborating women
• Reasons why women enter into time-wasting partnerships
• Over commitment and miscalculation
• The significance of bringing your assets to the table
• Strategic collaboration vs. Anti-collaboration
• An example of a healthy and productive collaboration

Signs of an Unproductive Collaboration:

• When it's going to drain your time and energy without giving you much in return
• When somebody invites you to collaborate, and they have no track record that proves they can do what they say they can do
• When somebody does exactly what you do
• When you have to create something new that you're not already doing

Fierce Leadership Quotes:

• "The rule of being nice is just one rule that we, as powerhouse women leaders, need to break."
• "For a collaboration to be effective, you each have to be bringing assets to the table."
• "Your next level of success has so much more to do with what you say 'no' to than to what you say 'yes' to."

It's a common saying that rules are meant to be broken. Perhaps there is some wisdom in this quote in the sense that some people have found success by thinking out of the box, going the extra mile, and breaking old rules. This mindset is what we're going to talk about today as I share an interview with Amanda Boleyn that was originally aired on the She Did It Her Way Podcast.

I'm sharing why women struggle to replace their corporate income after taking the leap to entrepreneurship, how to get rid of limiting beliefs, the truth about confidence and how to get it, and how high income earning business women think.

"There is an intentional bending of the rules in order to achieve the greater good or greater outcome in an effort to do what's right." - Eleanor Beaton

Today on the Fierce Feminine Leadership Podcast:

• The influence in my life that encouraged me to pursue professional success my way
• Why the majority of corporate women struggle to replace their corporate income

• Two significant parts of having predictable revenue
• Confidence vs. competence
• Key skills that successful business women have
• What men know that women don't about influence, money, and power
• The significance of tapping into informal relationships to show people that you can add value

Eleanor's Words of Wisdom:

• If you can, find your way into smaller rooms.
• Leverage your time before and after the meetings.
• Power and influence express itself informally.
