"Who put the idea in your head that you would be successful at your job or as a leader?" It's a simple yet profound inquiry that invites us to reflect on our own journeys and the influences that have shaped our careers. Think back to the person or people who believed in you, who saw your potential, and encouraged you to strive for success. Maybe it was a mentor who took you under their wing, a boss who gave you that first big break, or even a family member who always had faith in your abilities. These individuals played a crucial role in shaping your confidence and guiding you towards your goals. Now, imagine the impact you can have if you become that kind of leader for your team. By being positive and empowering, you can inspire your staff to reach their full potential. It's about creating an environment where people feel valued, supported, and motivated to excel. When you lead with encouragement and belief in others, you cultivate a culture of growth and success. This Approachability Minute reminds us that leadership is not just about giving orders or managing tasks. It's about nurturing the talents and aspirations of those around us. It's about being the kind of leader who leaves a lasting, positive impression on the people we work with. So, the next time you interact with your team, ask yourself: Are you the kind of leader who instills confidence and fosters success? Are you the person who plants the idea in someone's head that they can achieve greatness? Embrace the challenge to be that leader, and watch your team—and yourself—thrive.

As this TED talk underscores, to get ahead in your career, you must have sponsors. While working with an outstanding coach or a mentor external to your organization ignites your career, having an internal sponsor (or a few!) to advocate for you is jet fuel. If you want to ascend to the top of your field, you must develop both your professional and relationship currencies, as Carla Harris outlines in this TED. Many times, people exclusively focus on performance currency (results) to move up, but it's not enough. Relationship currency, particularly developing relationships with sponsors, is equally important. What are some methods? I encourage clients to identify those higher-ranking people with whom they have rapport and trust and invest in developing those relationships. Support those leaders and their initiatives, be a resource when they need one, seek their advice, and make a point to learn from them. And, if you are in the enviable position to be a sponsor to someone, please invest in the next generation of leaders. As Ms. Harris wisely stated, 'to grow your power you must be willing to give it away'. #Sponsor #Careerstrategy #Coachsultant #TED #Mentor #Careergrowth

There is a monumental difference between leading from assumption and leading from expectation. One leads to confusion and the other leads to clarity. And most of the time the difference between the two is one simple comment or question. Lead well.
