As a leader, how do you create a resilient and supportive community that thrives through both successes and setbacks? Like elite athletes, leaders and teammates support each other and cultivate a strong sense of community through both triumphs and setbacks. This solidarity is founded on mutual respect, shared experiences, and a profound understanding of the challenges they face. Deepsky encourages teams to celebrate each other’s victories with genuine praise and encouragement, while also offering solace and empathy during defeats. This supportive network helps navigate the highs and lows of careers, reinforcing #resilience and #motivation. The bond among elite athletes transcends competition, creating a community that champions each other’s #growth, #wellbeing, and #success. In the same way, leaders and teammates in the workplace form a cohesive unit that thrives on collaboration and mutual support. By fostering an environment where everyone feels valued and understood, they enhance overall #performance and ensure collective #progress. This shared journey not only strengthens individual resolve but also builds a true resilient and thriving #community.

Community is everything. It’s the support system that lifts us when we're down, celebrates with us when we're up, and pushes us to be better every day. We have everyday examples of how communities have rallied around each other during tough times—whether it’s supporting local businesses during a crisis or coming together to advocate for change. I’m excited about what we’re building with the #DeepskyLeadersCommunity. It’s not just another network—it’s a space where leaders come together to share real experiences, learn from one another, and genuinely grow together. If you’re looking for a place to connect with like-minded leaders and learn from those keen to share their wisdom and experience with you check out the community: https://lnkd.in/eVyxDxXE

I want to try something new. I would love to hear YOUR stories about teams you've been on. Indulge me, if you will. It's Friday. A good day for reflection. So, here's the question: Have you ever been a member of a well-performing team? Where people put self-interest aside for the betterment of the whole. Where everyone's voice was heard and felt valued. What made this cohesion possible? How much of yourself did you have to change? Share in the Comments. #teambuilding, #leadershipdevelopment, #storysync, #storytelling, #loveforchange, #FutureVision, #leadwithlove, #changemakers

I talk to Founders (almost daily) who struggle with Building teams or building morale. I tell them it can be solved by doing 3 simple things: 1) Vision cast. Get damn good at getting your team bought into what tomorrow looks like. Own (and be) the story. 👓  2) Develop a BHAG culture. Big Hairy Audacious Goals are what builds incredible, vertical-owning, businesses. Let your people know you set big goals, get them to set big goals, and then go after them.  3) Be a PERSON. Not every day will be perfect. Not every day you will hit a BHAG. Some days your feet will feel like you are stuck in concrete. Don't be scared to share those days with your people, too.  Nail the 3 above and you are headed down a solid path. #founders #salesstrategy #buildingteams

apathy • \AP-uh-thee\ • noun. 1 : lack of feeling or emotion : impassiveness 2 : lack of interest or concern : indifference. Apathy isn't something most of us consciously choose. Instead, it can be a default response to feeling totally and completely powerless and overwhelmed. On June 5th, Romy Alexandra and I will be leading a virtual Late Nite Art experience titled "Apathy to Awe." Designed for Internal People & Culture Leaders, this 75-min session will show you how to unlock creativity and envision what's possible in turbulent times. Join us 11 am-12:15 pm PST | 2 pm-3:15 pm EST on Zoom for an immersive virtual experience using art, music, and exercises from the LNA method to open up curiosity and explore creative solutions to today’s most pressing leadership challenges. You'll forge new relationships with other people leaders, gain fresh ideas, and discover innovative ways to build connection with your team — even virtually. #emotionalintelligenceapplied #creativity #awe #wonder #burnout #engagement #innovation #artasmedicine https://lnkd.in/eisDDDin

Connection isn’t something we should put off until ‘we have the time’—it’s something we must make time for. To build thriving teams, we need to intentionally invest in connection. Strong teams are built through meaningful relationships and intentional efforts. #ElevateConnection

What may be obvious to you is magic to someone else. Words shared can spark ideas, thoughts, trigger innovation. Engagement at every level is important and can have a tremendous impact on those around you. You lasting legacy will be not the things your have but will be reflected in your level of engagement with those around you. #heartcenteredcoach #people #itsallaboutpeople #wordmagic

When your vision is crystal clear and authentically reflects your purpose, it has the power to do incredible things: ✨ It connects your team, aligning them around a shared mission and purpose. United, they'll move mountains. ✨ It inspires action, fueling your people to bring that vision to life with passion and commitment. ✨ It drives growth, providing the roadmap to reach new heights and make a bigger impact. But here's the thing - if your vision is unclear or doesn't truly resonate, your entire strategy will crumble. It's time to get laser-focused. What's your North Star? What future are you creating? Get super specific, and make sure it lights a fire in your belly and your team's. #EquityCatapult #VisionMatters #StrategicPlanning #LeadershipDevelopment #GrowthMindset #FutureOfWork
