“Leadership is a privilege, Not a destination”
Says our guest, Dawn Johnson.
This Mindset… wrap your head around what that can mean and.. .for many of us… this idea is a very different picture than, too often, what we experience.
She starts from the belief that…
“Every employee deserves a great leader
Every leader deserves a great start!”
Dawn asks all the right questions when it comes to leadership. I think you will be listening to her saying “YES, YES, YES”… be you employee or leader!!
Dawn, a Learning and Development Professional, liked her work so much she started her own company! She walks us through a inspiring and hopeful vision of what leadership is, or can aspire to be. Mistakes NOT to make.
The tone set by our leader and how we experience our work environment…. yes, even IF you are working from home… effects our daily well-being and health…. especially if issues go on too long.
What can we do? Dawn has some great insight!
What did we talk about?
“Leader.”.. what does it mean to be a leader?
How has it changed over time and what does it look like now?
What qualities make a good… a GREAT leader?
Stressed leaders create stressed employees
Pitfalls leaders might experiences if they haven’t been prepared for the challenges that come with the responsibility.
Good leaders need quality support and feedback to be great!
Introverts…. Yes, you! Dawn shares what qualities introverts might have that make them especially great leaders.
Who gets promoted to leadership. Are they being rewarded for a different job done well? Do they even WANT to be a leader?
Our culture, leadership, how it is rewarded… and sometimes seen as a destination… seen as the definition and proof of success.
Feedback… early and often.
What help the Pandemic may offer employees as well as leaders?
Work/life balance… HA! HA! HA!
Smart phones, emails at 10pm and blurring the boundaries.
Unlimited vacation time… wait, WHAT DID YOU SAY??
Tips for when you struggling with situations at work.
