Vandaag heb ik samen met Tineke Meinsma de kadervisiedag georganiseerd. We begonnen de dag met een terugkijk op de vele inzetten van het afgelopen jaar. Het was weer een bewogen jaar met zeer uiteenlopende inzetten. Na dit onderwerp hebben we de personele bezetting en opleidingen/trainingen voor 2025 gepresenteerd. Mooi dat we weer nieuwe collega’s tegemoet kunnen zien. Jan Bakker heeft ons bijgesproken over de ontwikkelingen van #obtccb en de wijze van trainen in 2025. Van Peter Beuns kregen we een presentatie over de ontwikkelingen binnen het domein #paraatheid. Ook zijn persoonlijke ervaringen, op het gebied van #leiderschap, kwamen daarbij aan bod. Het programmaonderdeel leiderschap werd in de middag voortgezet. Benny W. begeleidde ons in een inspirerende sessie over leiderschap van met name de groepscommandant. Een mooie dag. Tot de volgende!! #mobieleeenheid #rccb

Ever had someone say to you, "You really *get* me"? 🤗 How did that make you both feel? (Great, I imagine!) That's the magic of the EMPATHIZE SOI 360 influencing style—it sends the message "I Understand!" But is it ever enough to simply say those two words? Of course not! Truly empathizing means breaking down your message into different levels: 🗣️ Finding the right words or content to meet their perspective and frame of reference 💞 Conveying sensitivity and compassion in your tone, emphasis, and body language. 💡 Imagining how they’ll interpret your empathy – think about your context, priorities, and goals, as well as the other person’s own experiences and emotions. ✨Considering your potential emotional impact – how will they feel during and after your chat? Empathy isn’t just about helping people feel heard and understood, it’s about connecting on a deeper level. In the long term, it’s how you build trust and foster strong relationships.

Ever wonder what it truly means to support others in their development? 🪜 The 𝗖𝗢𝗔𝗖𝗛 style is all about moving others forward by asking thoughtful questions and offering new perspectives. Every influencing style conveys a message, and this one communicates:  "𝙇𝙚𝙩 𝙢𝙚 𝙝𝙚𝙡𝙥!" But truly game-changing coaches don’t just verbally express their intention to guide and support. They communicate that message on many levels. They consider: ✅ The words and language they use, e.g.: “I’m here to support you!” “My door’s always open after 3 pm!” ✅ How they say it: Great coaches give thought to how they deliver that message, e.g., sitting in an open, inviting posture or nodding. ✅ How their listener/teammate will interpret their message, e.g., using examples that will resonate with their coachee ✅ Ways they can make their listener feel supported and guided, both during and after their conversation ✅ What will stick with their teammate after the conversation, e.g., finding out what motivates their coachees and stimulating their thinking Coaching is about 𝗘𝗠𝗣𝗢𝗪𝗘𝗥𝗜𝗡𝗚 those around you to new heights, and making sure others know you will be there on their development journeys. Did you realize there were so many levels to communicating “Let Me Help You!” with the 𝗖𝗢𝗔𝗖𝗛 style?

Have you ever noticed how one teammate’s behavior can influence an entire meeting? 🤔 Picture this: You’re in a meeting, and one of your colleagues takes the lead—they speak assertively, present ideas, and fill the space with their voice and energy 💪🏼 What does everyone else start to do? If you look around, you’ll notice your coworkers start to fall silent, nod, and listen. You witnessed the first law of influence from Leary's Rose in action: 🔄 "Following behavior evokes passive behavior." 🔄 When one person takes control and becomes more dominant or directive, others naturally become more “wait and see” with their communication. (It’s not always a conscious choice; it's human nature to balance out dynamics. That’s why the SOI 360 is based on this model!) And the opposite? It’s also true! Imagine the same meeting, but everyone is waiting for someone else to take the floor this time. 🦗 Silence hangs in the air, almost inviting someone to speak up. Passive behavior encourages dominance—the quieter or more silent we become, the more others feel triggered to take the lead. Knowing these laws of influence is the first step toward becoming more aware of how your behavior triggers your teammates’ reactions. → Are you talking too much and preventing others from contributing?  → Are you waiting too long and unintentionally making someone else take over? How would you describe your behavior in the last meeting you attended? Were you more active or passive? How might you consciously choose your approach to unlock your best collective performance?
