⭐ Model how you are growing yourself! ⭐
Your team is looking for a role model to follow, not someone who follows the “do as I say, not as I do” leadership style.
Since learning, development, personal and career growth are among the top motivators of employees, leading the way on how you are continuing to grow in these facets demonstrates that you will support your team as well.
It also shows vulnerability as you acknowledge your continued growth journey and demonstrates that whatever dreams your team members have, will likely be supported by you as their leader.
As you model this behavior, you will become a beacon that shines the light on a path for them and a mentor for them to ask questions and gain wisdom.
Showing up for yourself will translate into showing up for your team.
It’s a win-win!
