"In a world that's increasingly complex and fast-paced, the ability to coach your team effectively is more vital than ever." ~ Rochelle Marie
In this episode of Her Leadership Coach, your host Rochelle dives into the depths of three seminal books that offer transformative perspectives on leadership. For aspiring leaders and those already in leadership roles, this episode offers practical, actionable insights to make you more effective and courageous in your role.
In this week's episode, you will learn:
1. Active Listening: Your Untapped Superpower:
Drawing from Stephen Covey's renowned book, 'The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People,' Rochelle discusses the critical importance of active listening. She challenges you to embrace the principle of 'Seek First to Understand, Then to Be Understood' in your professional interactions this week.
2. The Art of Asking the Right Questions:
In this segment, we delve into 'The Coaching Habit' by Michael Bungay Stanier. Rochelle explores the art of asking powerful questions, particularly the question, "What Do You Want?" This seemingly simple question can be a transformative tool for gaining clarity and encouraging action, especially for women in leadership roles.
3. Lead with Authenticity and Resilience:
Rochelle praises Brené Brown’s 'Dare to Lead,' dissecting its core principles that particularly resonate with her. From the importance of being crystal clear to building shame resilience, she explains how these principles are not just theories but practical approaches to more authentic leadership.
4. Actionable Steps for Courageous Leadership:
Rochelle wraps up the episode with actionable challenges derived from each of the books discussed. These mini-challenges, like the 'Courage Audit,' are designed to prompt introspection, instigate change, and make you a more effective leader.
Ready to dive deeper? Rochelle emphasises that personalised coaching is the quickest way to excel as a leader. The episode wraps up with a testimony to the exponential growth one of her clients experienced in a senior leadership role—proving that focused, tailored guidance can indeed help you exceed expectations.
