Enhancing Leadership Skills

Direction.

by

What is your STRATEGIC direction?

This is an important question for you to be able to answer. Not for others, but for you.

Now, unlike specific goals, a general direction is all about a general trajectory.

Having this set up in your mind is key. A feel for the direction.

If you’re not clear on your direction and you’d like support, you can reach out to us to help you shape it.

In the meantime, the reason YOU must have a clear direction is so you have a feeling of CERTAINTY from with-in yourself. If you don’t, it will be difficult for others to ‘follow you’ or keep track with you.

Leadership is about having people follow you. But to where?

If we can help you get clarity? And you need a hand? Don’t hesitate to reach out over at our website where you can book a clarity call with us.
Here’s the specific page:
https://www.interceptexperience.com/#front-page-6

It’s free. And there is NO obligation to do anything other than get clear.
Clarity is Power. The clearer you are the more powerful you can be.

Your Leadership Style.

by

Your Leadership Style. Is it brain based? Or heart based?

Have you ever stopped to consider that? Or assess it?

The way we teach Positive Leadership is to get your balance right between your expertise and your humanity.

Put another way, head and heart or mind and emotions or brain and heart.

This is always the answer when it comes to leading people.

Getting the balance between brain and heart right.

The challenge is that society conditions us to be logical and to eliminate the feels.

However without the feels we fail to create the kind of connection that builds strong relationships.

And of course,

without relationship no business can be done. No trusted relationships. No deals. No business.

If you’re ready to find your right balance of humanity and expertise, then really tune into what we have available.

We have a self paced learning program you can #learnathome on positive leadership and influence.

Its called The Influential Leader Online. It’s an online mentoring program that you can drip feed the learning for yourself and your team and learn at your own pace.

If you already have this we’d love your comments on how it’s helped you and what modules you love the most.

If not, and you like the sound of it, reach out at client@interceptexperience.com we can share more about how you access the free trial.

We’d love to share the gold nuggets inside this online program: TheInfluentialLeaderOnline

In the meantime, tune into whether you’re more head or heart based – or can deliver on both.

Thanks for reading, and we hope this serves you in some way.

Communication

by

Communication is a BIG deal.


When we FAIL to communicate clearly or in a way that lands powerfully to others: we can feel misunderstood.

Being misunderstood is the worst feeling. We all want to be understood.

As a positive leader a great goal is to do your best to understand others.

I want to introduce you to a tool that will help. It’s a free self assessment you can do called the 5 love languages. https://www.5lovelanguages.com/
The idea is to identify the way that you like to communicate and be communicated with.

We believe that understanding yourself will go a long way to getting the most out of your personal and business relationships, and of course, help make you a much better leader.

Enjoy the assessment and we really hope it serves you in enhancing your relationships.

Dealing with Disappointment

by

Embracing Disappointment is a KEY to developing your leadership.

Why?

Because life DOES NOT run smoothly.

Life runs BUMPY.

And, keeping this top of mind gives you an ability to NOT BE TAKEN OUT by life.

So really today’s message is about creating a mindset that HELPS you move forward. That HELPS you have energy. That HELPS you get through the ups and downs of the day. That HELPS you keep perspective.

In life we will always FEEL disappointment at some point. The secret is to allow the process of this feeling to move through us like a PROCESS rather than a highly emotionally charged EVENT.

If you would like to learn more about Processing Disappointment. And how to D.E.A.L. with disappointment, then please email us at clientcare@interceptexperience.com with the subject D.E.A.L “WEB LESSON” . We will then prepare a “WEB LESSON” and some ecoaching for you on this very important skill.

For now, knowing that there is a way to process disappointment is key.

Next step will be to learn HOW to processes it. And we have some strategies for you inside our paid for materials.

In the meantime, if you’re already a client, please raise this inside your next session with your Intercept facilitator. Or if you’d like to look into this with us, reach out at clientcare@interceptexperience.com

VISION

by

You have to have Vision, and you have to have hope. It’s what will keep you moving forward.

The other day, I had one of you reach out to me and ask me if I really felt things would get better.

What do you see? Is the question I asked.

What is the Vision that you can cast?

What is the hope that you see?

This is so important as leaders. We must focus on what we can see, on what we can do, and what we believe in.

This gives us strength, and it also gives strength to others.

If you’ve made the decision to be a leader in the community, if you are a leader in business, if you are a leader at work, then it is important to always ask yourself this question:

“Where am I leading others to…”

So, be mindful of your vision. Be mindful of your direction.

And if you would like support from the team here to create and cast a strong compelling vision. If you would like help in defining, refining and shaping your goals, then please reach out.

We have a range of ways we can support you, from free to paid to self paced learning. Our commitment is always that we will meet you where you are at.

If you are an existing client, we trust this serves as a reminder to keep focused on your vision.

If you are new to our work, please know we are here to help you clarify your vision and direction. Reach out to us at clientcare@intereptexperience.com and we will do our best to support you in any way we can.

The secret will be to figure out your learning style.

  • do you prefer to write and observe on a whiteboard?
  • do you like to read and consider?

  • do you like conversation?
  • do you like one on one?

There are so many considerations! The good news is, that ALL of these can be accommodated online!

Tune into us here.

You can also head over to Tanya Lacy (My business page, where I have a whole bunch of videos on there).

So what would you like to LEARN? How to……… ? And more importantly, why is it important to you to learn that thing….

Are You New to a Leadership Role?

by

Perhaps you’re rolling out your own start up?

Or Maybe you’ve realized you need to bring others into your work world.

Whatever the case, as you build a team around you you discover something.
The importance of knowing how to work with and THROUGH others.

This is a whole new skill set. Sometimes it’s about communication. Sometimes it’s about leadership and sometimes it’s about management.

Whatever you want to categorize it under, the bottom line is it’s a new skill set.

Here is a list of issues that our clients and their teams come to us to help them resolve.

  • Trouble with boundaries (remedy – Influential Leadership 2 Day Experience)
  • Trouble with giving feedback (remedy – Intercept Express, or ID Report Debrief)
  • Trouble with being on the front foot and being assertive vs angry (remedy – Models we teach inside our Masterclass Lead With Impact)
  • Trouble speaking up in meetings (Remedy Positive Workplace Program)
  • Trouble standing front of room (Remedy – Influential Leadership program)
  • Trouble being understood in email and in memo (Intercept Experience)
  • Trouble being taken seriously (Individual Development program / Intercept ID)
  • Crippling self doubt (Intercept Experience)
  • Crippling lack of direction from senior management (Intercept ID, Positive Workplace Program, Influential Leadership, Lead With Impact)
  • Trouble with negotiations with suppliers (Lead With Impact)
  • Trouble getting money from people (Intercept Executive Program)
  • Trouble getting sales (Intercept Sales)
  • Trouble getting new customers? (Intercept Sales & Influential Leadership Training).

Shall I go on?

All these issues are part of being in business. And, if you don’t have the right support in acquiring the right skill sets, you can sink.

What we’ve found to be the best help we can give our clients and community is beginning with the end in mind.

What do you want to create?

You will find this question on my personal blog over at Tanya.company.

This is a key question I ask myself all the time, and my team at Intercept the business I founded a long time ago.

Ask yourself – What do I want to CREATE ? – Get clear on that, and then KNOW we have your back and can help you shape your direction and your LEADERSHIP Style.

Please don’t be mistaken. If you are in business? If you are dealing with other human beings? At one point or another? You are in #Leadership.

So, if you’d like to come on a journey to develop your leadership, please know that my company is all about developing leaders.

Ask any question and feel free to know we can support you.

If you’re ready to invest in yourself, reach out to us.

If you’re not quite ready, yet you like the feel of what you read here?

Then please know we also have a very specific PRIVATE facebook group which you are welcome to join in on called Positive Leadership Network.

There are plenty of FREE & low cost resources, all you have to do is ask. (C) 2020 Tanya Lacy for #PositiveBusinessNetwork
