❓ 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐌𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐝𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐛𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐨 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤? 💡Your #mindset plays a crucial role in how you navigate challenges, make decisions, and lead others. Robert Kegan, a renowned developmental psychologist, introduced a powerful framework to understand the evolution of our thinking and #leadership through three key stages: 1️⃣ 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐨𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐳𝐞𝐝 𝐌𝐢𝐧𝐝 In this stage, we are shaped by societal norms, external expectations, and authority figures. We seek approval and validation from others, often conforming to the beliefs and values of those around us. Leaders at this stage may struggle with independent decision-making, relying heavily on group identity for direction. 2️⃣ 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐞𝐥𝐟-𝐀𝐮𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐌𝐢𝐧𝐝 As we evolve, we begin to define our own beliefs, values, and goals. We become more autonomous, comfortable taking ownership of our decisions, and driven by internal #motivation. Leaders here are more self-directed, aligning actions with their personal vision and principles. 3️⃣ 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐞𝐥𝐟-𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐌𝐢𝐧𝐝 At the highest stage, we question our own beliefs and assumptions, embracing complexity and multiple perspectives. Leaders at this level thrive in ambiguity, innovating and adapting as they continuously evolve their approach. Our founder Silvia Bottini ☆ Executive and Team Coach ☆ says that understanding these stages is not only insightful for personal development but also for leadership growth. And here is why: 👉 As a leader, knowing which mindset you operate from allows you to better navigate challenges, connect with your #teams, and drive transformation in yourself and your organization. 👉 Moreover, you can move toward greater self-awareness, autonomy, and adaptability, facilitating your personal and professional growth. 📈 An important part of the work that Silvia does with #executives, is to help them transition from a socialized mind—where they are more focused on fitting in and external validation—to a self-authoring mind—where they define their own path and leadership style. For those at the self-transforming level, the coaching might focus on refining their ability to embrace complexity, integrate multiple viewpoints, and drive innovation. ❔ Which mindset resonates most with you?

❓𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗺𝘂𝗰𝗵 𝗧𝗿𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗱𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝗮 𝗧𝗲𝗮𝗺 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿? Trust isn't just a nice-to-have; it's the foundation of every successful #team driven by a #leader who is reliable, competent, understanding and can show empathy. When team members trust their leader, they're more #committed, #communicate more openly, and are willing to take necessary risks. This not only accelerates #problemsolving and #innovation but also enhances job satisfaction and loyalty. ❓If you are leading a team or an organization, do you know how to inspire and instill trust in the people you lead? ❓Before you answer the question, do you know that there are two types of trust?

🌟Six Aspect of Emotional Intelligence🌟 Every #leader knows that #emotionalintelligence plays a pivotal role in enhancing leaders' interpersonal and communication skills, proving particularly valuable in inspiring, influencing, and motivating large teams or even entire organizations. In my experience working with leaders, managers, and organizations, I've observed a curious trend: their initial focus tends to be more on performance metrics than on emotional aspects. ❓This raises an intriguing question: why is this so? Despite acknowledging the importance of emotional intelligence, many hesitate to delve into seemingly simple yet profound questions. 👉How do they feel when interacting with clients? 👉What emotions surface during weekly team meetings? 👉What is their mood like on a Monday morning? Understanding these emotions is key to developing emotional intelligence. Being able to pause to name the emotions one feels in the moment, demonstrate the ability to be introspective. The point is, if a leader is neglecting their own emotions, how can they show empathy by understanding others' emotions? In this post we explore one aspect of emotional intelligence - emotional self-awareness - which helps people understand what #emotions they feel and how these emotions can impact their #performance. Take a look at our emotional #selfawareness slides and see if you can recognize some of the examples we offer. When you desire to work with bCoached to enhance your emotional intelligence and #leadership style, we invite you to connect with our lead executive coach Silvia.
