Know Your Energy Leadership
My results came back from my energy leadership assessment yesterday. POWERFUL information. I take this assessment every few years to see if I've improved my energy in a leadership capacity under stress. Am I operating at a level of energy that I can push forward or do I get stuck.
Do you want an energy leadership report? Read on.
Leadership is simply interaction where influence occurs.
You can change the way you view the world, approach problems, and engage with others when you learn about your leadership energy under stress and under normal conditions.
The key is to become aware of what makes you get stuck.
You can only change something when you become aware of it, and realize the options you have to change.
What keeps me honest is every few years measuring my attitudes, perceptions and beliefs to see if they’re working for me or against me as a leader.
The good news is I’ve improved. I’m spending less time be stuck (in a catabolic energy state) and moving to forward (in anabolic energy state).
When you’re in a catabolic state you can’t let go, you’re not steady, you’re resisting and in turn you’re draining your energy.
When you’re in an anabolic state you are productive, constructive, expanding and growing.
My coach used to describe my energy leadership like a Duck Paddling Mad….look serene on the surface but underneath I was stressed out.....stuck, afraid, and therefore my effectiveness as a leader was compromised at times. Now with more awareness I’m able to surrender sooner, have a higher level of curiosity, and trust more. Although there is always room for improvement, I’m more even keel as a leader and can stay above the fray or other people’s drama.
You see every interaction presents the opportunity to lead and have a positive impact on others.
I want to show up more often at higher levels of energy leadership …..where I’m problem solving, connecting, advocating and helping others.
How are you operating as a leader? If you want to increase your ability to shift energy and the energy of those around you then contact me to hear about taking the energy leadership assessment.
