We find this to be true with our clients and in our own professional and personal lives. When we choose to have a focused mindset we are able to implement behaviors that are supportive, leading us to outcomes we can trust. Our focus is not necessarily perfection - we are all human. Our focus is on looking for the opportunities to learn and grow when outcomes don’t come to fruition like we intended.
This year we have heard many times over that people want to be more present in their work and life. Focusing on being present will lead you to magnifying your own potential and the potential of your team. Below we drew from the previous weeks in our April newsletter to give you an example of a simple strategy to increase PRIORITIZING PRESENCE:
At TC&A we continue to build our capacity for good and healthy communication for the good of all. Recently, I experienced an individual who lacked ALL ability to listen. It was truly astonishing - the lack of listening skills.
I am very aware of strong extraverts who love to talk and be expressive with their thoughts and views. Also, I am very aware of the importance of drawing information from introverts and asking good questions to support them to be part of the dialogue.
Listening and Connecting is important to us. As you embrace September and the beginning of a new season – We are wondering what the summer may have revealed or made known to you? Our minds may tell us that success is to: keep going, give everything, work until we’re exhausted, seize every opportunity, and keep chasing success.
I know there is more for me to expand in my personal and professional Leadership. May I embrace you, August with a sense of gratitude and be willing to prepare for the things to come – the things in life, work, relationships and love that are most significant for moving forward and creating something meaningful and worthwhile.
