People, Growth Zones

The success of your business doesn’t just depend on WHO you hire… but on HOW you lead them. 

So, how can you ensure that you are being the leader you are meant to be – in order to have a TEAM that shines in their roles, without you getting involved in daily tasks? 

Today, we are diving into Part 1 of a 2-part series all about the kind of leadership that transforms businesses from the inside out. This episode is about “Leadership of TEAM” and “Leadership of SELF” – the internal aspects of how you lead in business.

What You’ll Learn in Today’s Episode: 

  • What to do when you feel like you’re the only one who truly CARES for your business
  • How to STOP chasing your team for updates, redoing work, and hand-holding
  • Create a team that FREES up your time, rather than creating more work and stress
  • The three types of leadership every woman in business needs to understand – and which should come first
  • Why the shift from doer to director is SO important… but feels so uncomfortable
  • How to create clarity and empowerment with your team (no matter the size) and create a thriving team culture
  • The subtle but crucial difference between managing and LEADING (& how to balance the two!)
  • What “Leadership of Self” actually means… and why it is the foundation of not just your business, but your ability to move confidently through life
  • How to redefine what leadership is ‘supposed’ to mean, let go of the fear and self-doubt, and understand what YOU need in order to lead.

Whether you have no team at all, you’re managing a microbusiness, or you’re evolving how you show up as the leader of an established business…

… this episode is about YOU stepping into your power, voice, and ability.

And, be sure to join us next week for Part 2 of this series.
