Am I Proud of Who I've Influenced? Here's My Honest Answer with Tiffany English

Tiffany English, founder and CEO of Access Offshoring, discusses the concept of influence with Anton Guinea on the Find Your Influence podcast. Tiffany defines influence as the ability to positively change behavior, even when not present. She emphasizes consistency, authenticity, and long-term impact in leadership. Tiffany shares her journey, highlighting early influences, such as a female boss in a male-dominated industry, and the importance of adding value. She stresses the importance of core values, goal-setting, and creating a psychologically safe environment for her team. Tiffany believes in making the world a better place through personal and professional growth. Key Takeaways: Influence is measured by how people behave when you are there, not by how they act when you are watching. Consistency in energy communication and behavior is the backbone of effective long-term leadership. Great leaders focus on creating vision, providing opportunities, and removing roadblocks so their people can grow. Intentional goal setting across personal, professional, and financial areas creates deeper alignment and commitment in teams. The journey of influencing others starts with doing the inner work to influence and evolve yourself first.   Quotes: If people continue to behave in a certain way when I am not in the room, that to me is influence, not control. Your team and your family are feeding off your leadership energy, even on the days you do not want to show up. I walk into every room asking how I can add value here and prove my competence. The company and the people we are today are not the people we need to be to run this company in twelve months' time. When I look at the growth I have had and the hardships I have been through, the person I am most proud to have influenced is me.   Timestamps:   00:00 Introduction and a bold definition of influence 03:01 Consistency control and how leaders shape behavior that lasts 04:58 Leading global teams at a distance and creating lasting impact 09:06 Early role models, confidence, and adding value in any room 13:25 Clarity in communication and letting people learn through their own decisions 17:17 Discovering values, obligation, and the drive to be better 21:26 Vision opportunities and removing roadblocks as a leadership blueprint 28:17 Personal, professional, and financial goal setting with the team 32:55 Influence happiness and the joy of watching people grow 34:42 Why the person you are most proud of should be yourself 36:18 Final reflections on legacy impact and leaving people better than you found them   Conclusion:   This episode is a masterclass in what influence really means when the microphones turn off, and real life begins.
