Do you find it challenging to get enough done, and you are constantly exhausted when you get home from work?
Hi, this is Grant Herbert, VUCA Leadership and Sustainable Performance Coach, and today I want to continue our conversation around these three Ps of leadership by helping you develop your professional leadership skills.
Today, I want to shift gears and start talking about those skills that you and I need to lead ourselves well and get the results we need from our own efforts.
So, let's talk about these three shifts in the Professional Leadership area.
The first area that we're going to work on is your PERFORMANCE. This is all about shifting from that high-performance mentality, and high-performance alone, to sustainable performance, which is about doing things in a way that means you'll be able to do them for longer.
The second area that we're going to work on is your POSITIONING. This is a big shift from being invisible — where you blend in with everybody else — to being in demand. You stand out, you're known for knowing certain things, you're a thought leader.
Then the third area we will work on is your PRODUCTIVITY. The shift we're going to make is to go from focusing on time to looking at outcomes — managing three things: Your expectations, your environment and your energy.
Energy is something that you can control. Time is not.
Your professional leadership is about YOU getting results from YOU. It's about thinking and doing things differently in the areas of PERFORMANCE, POSITIONING, and PRODUCTIVITY. I'll see you then.
