Has anyone ever said anything to you that has just stuck? That definitely happened to us when our good friend and co-host, Tara Kemes, casually said one day, “Everyone is a leader to someone.” That was probably 3 years ago and since that time, this phrase has been repeated and used by us many times. Thank you Tara for those inspiring words and for inspiring our episode topic for today.
In this episode, we unpack our thoughts on what leadership is and how that definition has changed for us over time. We also talk about the limiting beliefs (from ourselves or others) that hold us back from being the leader we want to be. And then of course, we talk about ways to push back on those limiting beliefs.
Key Takeaways:
Lead by example! Every time you make the choice to be a better workplace human, you give permission for someone else to do the same.
Use these COVID times as an opportunity to practice being the leader you want to be.
Leadership can happen anytime, anywhere, and everyday.
Don’t worry about making mistakes and being perfect. Get back up and keep going, even if it feels kinda crappy on some days.
