A very enriching episode with Steven Gaffney, a speaker, seminar leader, and author on communication and leadership. We talked about how to be unconditionally powerful. Some of the takeaways:
The problem in organizations is lack of honest communication: it is not in what is being said but in what was not said!
Fear is the main reason for people not sharing things
“Conflict not faced, is conflict multiplied” - Jordan Peterson
There are three types of mindsets of people in workplace: powerless, conditional and powerful
Leaders should maintain their staff in the “powerful state”, so they can get things done
Leaders can ask their team about their suggestions and opinion in order to get them engaged, which leads to giving them more power and confidence.
What could we do as leaders to inspire the change in others
Daily meetings emphasize alignment, collaboration and engagement.
We should manage our emotions and channel them in a productive way.
These and much more we covered in this exciting conversation.
Until the next episode, stay INSPIRED and make the biggest difference in your area of responsibility and beyond.
