Description
How do you show up for work? What can you do to be the most effective team member? Many of us live our lives in complaint, disparaging and judging our coworkers. Yet, it turns out that what is keeping us from connecting are fundamental differences in personality and our lack of consciousness about who we are and how that impacts the people around us. This week’s show focuses on what we can do as leaders to overcome these differences. Our guest this week is Sava Berhané, the Associate Director for the Center for Women and Business. Betsy and Sava speak about how important it is to understand who you are as a person. Whether you are an introvert or an extrovert, you can be a successful teammate.  This episode discusses how actively communicating with colleagues is the key to correcting any quick assumptions made. Our perceptions of people may not always be correct, so understanding yourself and those around you will make for a productive workplace.
