Joanna Howes: Building Confidence: The Journey to Backing Yourself as a Leader

In this week’s episode of the podcast, I’m talking about the art of backing yourself as a leader. This is a topic that is very close to my heart and I wanted to spend some time discussing it today.I’m debunking the myths surrounding self-assurance and arrogance and why backing yourself isn’t arrogance, it’s actually caring for yourself, celebrating what you're able to do, and loving who you are.I also discuss why you have to learn to empower yourself through investing in you and building that trust with yourself and what you’re capable of.Key takeaways include:● Sharing my personal journey with low self-confidence● Exploring the craving for external validation and its implications● Embracing the highs and lows of confidence in leadership roles● Recognising the tendencies of leaders lacking self-backing● Encouraging personal growth through stepping out of comfort zones● Elevating performance by setting higher standards for oneselfFollow Joanna Howes and The Change Creators:website: https://www.thechangecreators.comlinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/joannahowes/👍 Stay inspired by joining our YouTube community!
