Resilient Leaders
Are you working in a company or law firm where leaders remain hopeful in tough times? How do leaders in your company or law firm create urgency leading through a crisis?
One of the most powerful questions one can ask is “Do our company leaders model good change management skills when the going gets tough?” Emotionally intelligent and socially intelligent leaders are adept at conveying why change is necessary.
Defeating Resignation in a Tough Economy
With the current state of our economy, it's easy for some leaders to feel helpless.
The result is in an inability to motivate and inspire their people and possible business failure.
The first step in getting out of this place of resignation is tapping into your self-awareness the foundation of emotional intelligence. You need to be aware of paralyzing beliefs before you can change them.
The second step is to question the beliefs underlying your resignation. What would you have to believe to feel the way you do?
“Our business strategy isn’t working and I don’t know what to do”.
Is this true? Can you really know? Or is it just a belief that you bought into?
The third step is to generate a new belief and then take actions that support it:
“Our leadership team can create an innovative new strategy that will succeed
in today’s challenging business climate”.
You can buy into the story of hopelessness or you can create a new story of possibility and opportunity. Proactively changing your story and underlying belief will help reenergize you and get your business back on track.
