Leveraging NLP for Leadership...

Old me as a Manager:

External Event: See someone not working as hard as they could be
Inner Perception: Useless, Lazy
State: Negative, Disappointed
Physiology: Slouched, Angry face
Response: Short
Outcome: Underperformance

New me as a Leader:

Once I started reading, journaling, becoming a better listener, meditating, and developing a growth mindset versus a fixed mindset, everything changed. The external event being the same, I now had the inner perception of the person needing guidance, coaching, and perhaps more purpose behind what they’re doing.  

I was able to reprogram my beliefs and values. 

This improved my state to empowerment because I am able to help this person. My body language went from slouched and angry face to shoulders back, chest out and a lot more smiles. My response went from being short to having a tremendous amount of patience and the outcome was high-performance from the team. 

In what ways are you developing yourself as a leader?

You got this!
