How to Lead | E100

Growing in leadership involves asking yourself: Where did I learn those things that aren’t really right? Especially as women. For instance, where did we learn to basically shut off our prefrontal cortex when it comes to making decisions? Particularly when leadership is involved? And where did we ever get the idea that we just need more templates, more how-tos, more quick fixes? There are so many successful, competent and confident women in leadership who have the capacity to stand in their decisions but they waver. Why? It’s not that they don’t know. They are aware they’re abdicating their authority. And that needs to stop. We all, as female leaders, need to move into conscious competence. We each need to become the woman who knows who she is. Let’s talk about this. “Templates… will not resolve the emotional distress you have as a leader… The only thing that’s gonna resolve that is you upleveling the way that you think about yourself as the woman who leads your company.” – Kris Plachy What You’ll Learn Wrong learning  Abdicating authority Moving into conscious competence You don’t need templates Becoming the woman who knows who she is Choosing to not be alone Contact Info and Recommended Resources Recommended episode that pairs well with this one: Season 6 Episode 13: Entrepreneurial Boredom Connect with Kris Plachy SAGE WEEKEND - Let us know if you’re interested in the details: krisplachy.com/sageweekend.
