  You are a WILLING LEADER.

  Image Source

  You WANT to be a better leader. You WANT your team to follow you.You were incredible in an individual role but this leader thing - it's a whole other ballgame!You know how to motivate yourself. It doesn’t feel as easy to motivate an entire team.There are days where you might want to just get to work and not worry about what other people are doing. You might have asked yourself if you’re cut out for leadership. It can be really hard when people are confused or mad at you, especially when you normally get along pretty well with others when you’re not having to be the leader. You’re good at what you do and know how to get the work done. The hard part is letting go of the work in order to lead well. You found yourself in a position of leadership without a lot of necessary mentorship and guidance. You may have even worked for others in the past who weren’t always the best leaders either. It can feel like you’re learning how to do your job all over again. WHAT TO LOOK OUT FOR:☑️ When you’re good at what you do and even have a natural talent for your work, ascending to leadership positions can challenge your sense of self. You may feel, for possibly the first time, that you’re not very good at something. This is an important time to practice self-awareness and develop your strengths and pinpoint areas of improvement. ☑️ As the leader, you get to set the pace with people and sometimes you have to learn how to slow down your own pace FOR other people. You are the one guiding your team. You can help regulate their workflow and stressors by learning to slow down, establish clear expectations, and open channels for clear communication. ☑️ Instead of overwhelming yourself with all kinds of leadership theory and conflicting information about what makes a good boss or leader, the most powerful thing you can do is learn how you lead yourself well so you can work with the team to help them grow. This happens through effective meetings and check-ins. ☑️ When there are mistakes or challenges at work, that’s when some of the most destructive assumptions can happen. Try not to act on assumptions or revert to micromanaging or even taking over when things aren’t going well. This is actually the best time to practice building trust with your team. ☑️ Even as a leader, you are going to need help and will make mistakes! It takes a lot of humility and a willingness to get things wrong in order to lead well. Be willing to get uncomfortable. Don't try to put on a perfect show for your team. The more human you are with them, the more comfortable they will feel with you. YOUR NEXT STEPS:You really can't afford to wait. You need to start the process NOW.The VERY BEST next step is to work with me inside our LeadWell Academy development program where you will begin moving the needle towards a personal leadership foundation that has the power to change your team culture and business performance in a big way.Let's chat for 10 minutes to see if LeadWell is a good fit for you.AT THE VERY LEAST: Promise me you'll dive into GET CLEAR our self-study course for leaders that will get you in touch with why you started and where you want to go (and even pull you out of the leadership doldrums.)"I realized slow and steady was the way to achieve the bigger goal. 100% of our success is attributable to LeadWell Academy. We are twice our original company size. And $98,000 of revenue and company savings was a direct return on our investment of LeadWell, a 10X return." ~Steve Hamlin, Executive Director, Health Service ProviderKey areas to focus on: Prioritize modern leadership skills development. Healthy leadership is the key to a thriving work environment. You will get more buy-in and commitment from your team when they feel you can really lead them. It is also CRUCIAL to establish a framework for healthy leadership at work when it comes to business growth. One of the major downfalls of most businesses who scale is not having a solid team of people who can grow with them. I have some tools for that in step 4.Start learning more about yourself as a leader in and out of work. Think of leadership as another skill to master just like you’ve mastered many skills before. You clearly have the competence and had the drive to get where you are now. You can learn this too. Master leaders put time into becoming more self-aware, they develop their emotional intelligence, and refine their communication skills, with lots and lots of practice. More on that in step 4. Practice communication and connection. As a leader, you must be able to work with people. You have to learn to read people, respond to their needs, and conduct difficult conversations. The more you learn this, the more you’ll notice it positively impacting all areas of your life as well. This is a key component of our LeadWell Masters Academy. See step 4!Commit to really stepping up your leadership through the LeadWell framework and support. In LeadWell, you learn key modern leadership skills and get real-time support from us as you implement them at work and in your life.

  You are a DEVELOPED LEADER. 

  Image Source

  You really care about how well you lead. You already know how to get things done. You’re often recognized for your mind and outstanding personal contributions.You got to where you are because of your vision, skills, and determination. Being skilled in your field and being able to lead in your field are two different things, and you’re really beginning to feel that. Because of your own focus and drive, you sometimes expect others to be on task and doing what they need to do. You can feel thrown off by conflict or issues that come up at work. You wish people would “figure it out” like you have. You bring really strong ideas to the table and people feel inspired by your mind. You aren’t always sure how inspired they are by your leadership skills. You’ve found a way to handle the pressure of work when it comes to getting things done. It’s a whole different challenge to feel the pressure of leading your team and know how to respond in the moment. WHAT TO LOOK OUT FOR:☑️ You’re good at what you do and people respect you, but having to lead people and anticipate their needs can drain you and even cause resentment if you don’t learn modern leadership skills. ☑️ You have ideas and can think tactically and logically, but have to learn ways to get your whole team on board with implementation. This includes knowing how to give them clear direction and expectations. ☑️ Your own to-do list is already big enough, it doesn't help to take on the to-do list of others. Instead, it’s important to think about how to start working smarter and delegating thoughtfully. ☑️ All great leaders need balance. As you grow and develop your leadership skills, you will have to find strategies to prioritize what matters most, including your personal and family time.☑️ Since you’re so used to solving problems and taking action yourself, your next challenge is to step back and start guiding your team through spotting what needs to be done and taking action without depending on you so much. ☑️ Though you care about leading well and want your team to enjoy working with you, things can feel tense when there is lack of communication and direction from you or members of your team. This is a call to action for you to develop your communication and team coaching skills in order to lead your team effectively. ☑️ When there are mistakes or challenges at work, that’s when some of the most destructive assumptions can happen. Try not to act on assumptions or revert to micromanaging or even taking over when things aren’t going well. Focus on building trust and open communication with your team. Be curious before assuming. Ask lots of questions. YOUR NEXT STEPS: Key areas to focus on: Make self-awareness a priority right now. When we want to lead well, we can mistakenly put our focus on everyone else but ourselves. We look at what we can fix and how to get people to follow us. Really great leaders start with examining themselves first. Get to know your own work and communication style right now. Pay attention to your reactions to things. Where are your strengths? What can improve? I have some tools for that in step 4.Practice leading better meetings and developmental one-on-one conversations. Stepping into higher levels of leadership requires relationship skills. You have to build rapport with your team if they’re going to feel confident in you and follow your lead. This is an area that most people have to practice. Just like you prepare for a job interview or a big speech, you can prepare for how to approach team members, write emails, conduct meetings, and resolve conflict. More on that in step 4. How you delegate is just as important as what you delegate. Lightening your workload is crucial to scaling any business as a leader. However, there’s more that goes into delegation than simply assigning people tasks. People perform at their best when they are given clear, kind, and consistent direction and feedback. Does your team know all the expectations of every project? This is a key component of our LeadWell Masters Academy. See step 4! Step up your leadership skills using the LeadWell frameworks and support. Great leadership is something that is learned. And every good leader (like you) can always get better. It takes consistent practice. In LeadWell, you learn key modern leadership skills and get real-time support from us as you implement them at work and in your life. This is an academy with a high-level of support with leaders from all backgrounds and is a perfect fit for Developed Leaders like you.

  You are a WISE LEADER. 

  Image Source

  You care about how well you lead. You put thought into how you respond to the people you work with. You want people to feel comfortable at work and able to come to you for guidance. You can also see the big picture and know just how important team harmony is to overall business growth. You have the experience and innate wisdom to lead well. You put a lot of effort into your own personal development and skills and it shows. You are often confident in your ability to take control of projects. You’re willing to hit the ground running when there is a problem to solve or a deadline to meet. You’ve likely spent a lot of time learning and even doing many of the things you now need your team to do without you. In order to grow and be less dependent on one individual, your organization needs you to step up to a higher level of leadership.Now is the time to think about how to elevate other leaders on your team so you can focus on higher level tasks.It’s time to tighten up those boundaries and empower others around you. WHAT TO LOOK OUT FOR:☑️ You’ve already proven that you can step up and lead and guide others. However, being likable or good at your job isn’t enough to scale and grow. It’s time to focus on who the other leaders are on your team and how you can bring them up. ☑️ As a wise leader, you have vision and can give great guidance. The challenge is knowing how to handle conflict with care and encourage people on your team to be open and honest. ☑️ It's your nature to lead from the front lines and help others with their everyday needs. You might even take pride in your involvement with the daily operations. The challenge will be to distance yourself, develop others and build trust with your team, knowing they can manage the day-to-day tasks.☑️ As you think of ways to scale and grow your organization, you’re going to face hard questions and decisions. One of them will be knowing how to bring your team together through every challenge. It takes great facilitation and coaching skills to get team buy-in. ☑️ To step up to the next level of leadership, it’s important to look at your own personal growth, emotional intelligence, conflict resolution skills, and relationship skills. YOUR NEXT STEPS: Key areas to focus on: Develop your emotional intelligence. This takes a blended practice of self-awareness and integrating relationship skills into your approach to leadership. Even though you are the boss, you’re still in a relationship with your team. The keys to a successful relationship are transparency, connection, and reciprocity. How can you help everyone feel heard and valued more as you grow? I have some tools for that in step 4.Hone in on your facilitation and conflict resolution skills. As you grow your organization and emotional intelligence, you’ll be presented with new and even unforeseen challenges. This is when it’s crucial to feel confident in how you lead your team toward and through that growth. We teach our leaders how to incorporate a coaching model into their leadership skills in LeadWell. More on that in step 4. Practice more delegation and learn to spot the leaders around you. Knowing how to lighten your workload is crucial to scaling any business as a leader. Your team needs you to do less and lead more. That’s easier said than done. How do you figure out what to let go of and what to keep a closer eye on? We help our leaders through this in the LeadWell Masters Academy. See step 4! Become a transformational leader using the LeadWell frameworks and support. Great leadership is something that is learned and practiced. Transformational leadership is the next step toward mastery. We recommend starting with strengthening your personal leadership skills to get clear on your own vision, blindspots, and areas of growth.

  You are a TRANSFORMATIVE LEADER!

  Image Source

  You’re meant to lead other leaders. You know how to find and bring out the potential in others. You know personal and professional development are a journey, not a destination.You care about being a consistent, reliable leader. You take the time to understand your team members. You see value in giving your team opportunities to grow. You strive to cultivate a healthy workplace. You want work to feel more like a calling than just a job. You want people to feel a sense of purpose and fulfillment at work. You can lead with purpose, positivity, and encouragement. Your team likely feels more at ease with your leadership than they may have in other work settings. You have already built a great foundation for a healthy work environment. This will make it much easier for you to expand your leadership skills and implement systems that facilitate thriving work environments as you scale your business.WHAT TO LOOK OUT FOR:☑️ As a transformative leader, you have to keep an eye out for getting too comfortable and be willing to push outside of your comfort zone even more.☑️ Since you do know how to put people at ease with your leadership skills, you might find it more difficult to make any decisions that could potentially disrupt team harmony and you might make too many compromises and be too accommodating.☑️ You have a clear vision for how your organization can grow, but executing your plans means making some tough decisions and making changes that could test your personal and team leadership skills.☑️ You lead by example, but there are times when you may overwork on things that might be better delegated so you can focus on what's important to your organization.☑️ Even great leaders often find it difficult to maintain that work life well-being as your business grows. You’ll have to put really conscious effort into protecting your personal life and joys. ☑️ You have to remember that creating sustainable change means constantly developing areas of you and your team's leadership. This can be difficult to do when things feel like they're going well enough.YOUR NEXT STEPS: As a leader of a growing organization, it's crucial you stay healthy and sharpen your skills so you can sustain the empowering culture you’re building.Key areas to focus on: Prioritize your personal leadership skills. They will help you take your business and team to the next level AND give you the tools to balance out and really start living your life as well. I recommend making daily self-reflection exercises a part of your routine. This includes practicing self-awareness and ways to continue expanding your emotional intelligence.

More on that in step 4.Master delegation and how to bring up other leaders in your organization. Learning to lighten your workload is crucial to scaling any business as a leader. Your team needs you to do less and lead more. All the time you spend overworking on things that can be delegated can be better spent planning and bringing up more leaders in your company.
