Assisting leaders and employees alike make development conversation ever-present and on-going rather than episodic — persistent rather than periodic.   Your corporate career development documents and process are a great starting point to pull points of discussion. They likely include a rich array of questions and activities to engage in and with. But why share every point at once? Consider the value of bite-size moments and processing information over time.   Perhaps you begin with questions about strengths and goals for improvement-- the power is in allowing  the employee the opportunity to think about their answers, as a part of the greater response. Then, the next month, or at the conclusion of a meeting, you move on to the next part of your form.  Moving this process, into bite-size moments over time, allows for a richer and more meaningful dialogue to emerge.   Here's the first way where you can start to A.A.C.T--- Let's explore it in this week's Empowerment Climb!  Oh and don't forget.. your organization's deadlines-- you may have to begin the process WELL in advance to remain compliant, but I promise it will be worth it.  #development #leaders #leadershipdevelopment #executivecoaching #robbinsnestconsulting Other Ways to Connect: Join the Million Dollar Inner Circle for $1! https://www.robbinsnestconsulting.com/offers/jQJJQewt Linked In: https://www.linkedin.com/in/drlacicrobbins/ Instagram: http://instagram.com/drlacicrobbins Podcast: Grace Over Grind, Available on all your major platforms Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/grace-over-grind-with-dr-laci-c-robbins/id1483955315?uo=4 --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/dr-laci-c--robbins/support

Although assuming responsibility benefits the organization, it is simply not possible for leaders to take ownership of every challenge faced by their employees.   So what's next? Leaders must thoughtfully seek out the most efficient and effective way to add value to their team, while also building culture.  Assuming responsibility means following through on your commitments--  only take responsibility for tasks you will be able to complete.   As a result, leaders can and should turn down opportunities that are outside of their scope or capacity.    Accepting full responsibility may be regarded and upheld as a trait of exceptional managers; however, it is important to do this intentionally in order to prevent spreading yourself too thin!

Cryptoassets are digital assets that use cryptography and can be traded on decentralized exchanges. Cryptoassets include cryptocurrencies, tokens, and smart contracts. Christopher shares some tips on how to get started in the world of Crypto, including how to buy and store Crypto currencies.

Hey Boss, In the final episode of her series on making peace with yourself and others, Dr. Laci talks about how to spread peace in your relationships. She begins by acknowledging that conflict is inevitable in any relationship, but that doesn't mean that it has to be negative. She suggests that when you're in a conflict with someone, try to see it as an opportunity to connect with them and understand them better. She also talks about the importance of communicating openly and honestly, and of listening to understand rather than to reply. Ultimately, Dr. Laci says that spreading peace in our relationships is an act of self-care, and it's worth the effort because it leads to more happiness for everyone involved.

Hey Boss, Have you made peace with yourself and others? Dr. Laci starts off this episode by encouraging us to appreciate the peace, and that includes the power of no. We often feel like we have to say yes to things, but sometimes the best thing we can do is just say no. This can be difficult, but it's important to remember that we're not obligated to do things that we don't want to do. We can't control what other people do, but we can control our own reactions. If we can learn to be at peace with ourselves, then we'll be better equipped to handle whatever comes our way.
