93. Leading With Authenticity

What this episode covers

93. Leading With Authenticity Today’s show is about leading with authenticity. Being authentic is a major focus in The Visibility Factor book and it is an important value for me. Authentic Leadership comes through when you are transparent about things, have high self-awareness, care about those around you and you can be yourself. It is so much easier to be yourself than to spend your time trying to be somebody else. Creating a leadership brand that is authentic to you and who you want to be requires vulnerability to be able to show up in a genuine way. It allows you to focus on your authentic self, build trust and create stronger relationships with your team and others in the organization. How do you know whether you are being authentic or not? How do you decide if someone you are talking to is authentic? We will be discussing this and more in today’s show! In this episode: How is authenticity defined? What are the characteristics of being authentic vs inauthentic? What it means to be truly authentic. A case study of a newer leader who wasn’t being authentic with his team. The impacts of not being authentic. Practice being authentic with every interaction that you have. Creating your own authentic leadership brand. How to evaluate your own authenticity to make changes if needed.
