It doesn't matter if you have just entered into your title
as an Associate or if you are the CEO of your company,
finding purpose in your job can be the catalyst to your
career as well as the success of your company. Pushing
yourself to recognize the value of your work and how
it contributes to the bigger picture can be a great way
to find the fuel you need as a leader as well as helping
others find theirs!
It is the beginning of a new year and it is time to
reawaken the passion for your role! Think back to the
moment that you finally received the role you are in
today. Remember what that felt like and the ferocity
in which you did everything with? Use those feelings
to transform what that looks like and feels like today.
Maybe instead of excitement you feel proud or grateful.
Whatever you are feeling, take this moment and allow it
to be a reminder throughout the year.
Having ambition can be a powerful motivating force to
help you achieve your goals. When you have ambition,
you can access your inner strength and resilience to
overcome obstacles and help you stay focused on the
things that matter.
When it comes to leading others, there is no doubt we
live in an era where most will agree that it is vital to their
roles to have a sense of purpose. In week 1 we explored
your personal sense of purpose. This week let's take a
look at how to help others find purpose.
Innovation is an essential characteristic for any
leader because it encourages creative thinking and
problem-solving that can help the organization move
forward. Additionally, it allows you to stay ahead of the
competition and ensure the organization is making
progress towards its goals.
Last week we took a look at innovation. Creativity and
innovation often are mistaken as the same thing.
However, creativity is the inception of a thing while
innovation is the product of that creative idea. You
may not believe that creativity lives in you but it lives in
all of us, it just may manifest in different ways for
different people.
Leaders who can create collaboration with others can
leverage the unique talents and perspectives of their
team members to create more effective solutions
and ultimately achieve greater success. Additionally,
it is important for leaders to learn to collaborate
with their colleagues. Remember, youneed diverse
perspectives in order to optimize and having a title
never changesthat fact.
