Leadership is an inside-out job. You need to lead yourself before you can start to lead your team and your business. To help you achieve this level of leadership, I’ll discuss the 3 key pillars to the self-aware leader. I’ll also give tips on how to overcome blocks like limiting beliefs that stop you from being an effective leader.

One of the biggest challenges for leaders whether they’re new or have been in their role for a while, is that to get to that next level, to become a courageous leaders they need to first unpack and work on the first pillar of the Courageous Leader - The Self-Aware Leader. To be a self aware leader takes work. Specifically looking at Clarity, Confidence and Conviction.

Clarity - Having a clear vision of where you are now, and where you want to be, and constructing a compelling future.

Confidence - The feeling of belief that one can have faith or rely on someone or something. The feeling of self-assurance arising from an appreciation of your own abilities.

Conviction - Showing passion for your beliefs and values while demonstrating consistent and predictable behaviour.
