Authentic leadership is the key to driving results, making a measurable impact and creating camaraderie.
Authentic leaders are self-actualized individuals who are aware of their strengths, their limitations, and their emotions. They also display their real selves to their followers. Communities rally around authentic leaders who are confident in their vision and purpose.
But how do leaders empower their teams to grow, change and evolve within an organization?
Finding balance between career, family and community continues to be a struggle for the workforce, especially for working mothers. The 2020 COVID19 crisis has illuminated the struggles to prioritize family and career. Challenges in balancing career and family often result in feelings of exhaustion, inadequacy, guilt, and unhappiness.
Living our purpose, balancing career and home and living happy are three priorities among the workforce.
In response to these situations, professionals ask themselves many questions:
-
How do I make an impact and grow within the organization
-
How do I find my purpose at work and home?
-
How can I be successful at work and in the home?
-
How do I become the best version of myself?
-
How do I create sustainable happiness?
