How can leaders inspire an exhausted team in #covid19 second wave?
Being resilient in crisis is when true #leadership skills come in spotlight.
Skills of a sports coach come very handy.
It's about combining #compassion and #ambition.
COMPASSION is caring, sharing own battles and pro-active helping.
AMBITION is empowering team to build self-confidence, resilience, courage, independence and constant improvement through action, communication, trainings and lateral thinking.
I was lucky to be in competitive sports most of my life and a psychological sports coach last 10 years. I see great resemblance with business leadership, especially when team is feeling defeated, blocked or discouraged.
Also rollercoasters in professional life help; when we touch the ground and bounce back we grow incredibly and build thicker skin. With every “battle" we win our resilience grows, our positive attitude becomes unbeatable.
I was countlessly bruised&injured, literally through sports and figuratively through crisis management and teams/companies transformational and reinventional leadership. Never ever gave up.
Sharing my personal tough experience today is helping others. I can identify better, help easier, encourage with passion.
What doesn’t kill us really makes us stronger (and happier).
