70. Becoming a Leader

70. Becoming a Leader Today’s episode is focused on becoming a leader of a team or even taking over a team. It is very exciting when it happens to you.  Leadership isn’t something that people are immediately good at when they get the title. It takes time to figure out who you are and what you stand for. Having a strong leadership foundation is great way to start, but then what?  You can take every class there is, but this is about going through situations and dealing with both great things that happen and also the things that are more challenging. In this episode: Leadership doesn’t come naturally for everyone. Doubts, limiting beliefs and impostor syndrome can get in the way. The importance of the first 90 days in a new role – where do you focus? Learning how to advocate for yourself and your team. Stepping up as a leader whether you are ready or not. Are you managing your boundaries or trying to do everything? Make sure you aren’t letting opportunities pass you by.
