American National Bank & Trust Company’s Post

I love this matrix from FW (Future Women). Many of us (myself included, when I'm in my own head) hold ourselves to a different standard than we would other colleagues, expecting perfect outcomes every time. When I make an error, the question I try to ask myself is "will this matter in 20 years' time?". Nine times out of ten it won't. Future Women helped me and many other women by helping us maintain and build connections during and post-Covid isolation and providing so many valuable learning and development opportunities to benefit current and emerging professional women. If you're interested in building your networks, I recommend checking their website. #bekind #futurewomen #connections #womeninleadership #womeninbusiness

It’s only been MY pleasure to lead our business for 8 of the 11 years I have been involved. Few things I have learned: • Only request of others tasks you're willing to undertake yourself. • True leaders prioritize their team's needs over their own. • Offer respect to everyone, regardless of whether they reciprocate. • Always come prepared. • Explain the purpose behind tasks, not just the tasks themselves. • Maintain an eagerness for learning throughout life. • Prioritize listening over speaking. • Sometimes, you'll need to go beyond your role without expecting rewards—such efforts often bring personal fulfillment. • Missteps aren't failures; they're chances to grow and advance. • Stay authentic to who you are and your core beliefs. Success follows when you align with organizations that share your values. • MOST IMPORTANT: Want more for others than from them! Thank you for the opportunity Mid-South, to continue to deliver a service that NO ONE wants, but at some point, EVERYONE needs.

Don’t remove the deference of a good thumb 👍. It is a thumb up 👍. It is agreeing without enforcing one’s own thinking or preference on others 👍. It is to move forward 👍. You don’t want to move forward? No worry. Take your time. You feel unsure? Communicate. Example: Boss/colleague: I need numbers of report B by noon tomorrow. You: I’m working on report A since it is due today. I want to be thorough and accurate with report B so I will need more time to work on it. I can have it for you by 8pm tomorrow. Will this work? Boss/colleahue: 👍 You: (feel uncertain what that means? Communicate/confirm). Great! I’ll have the numbers on report B for you by 8pm tomorrow. Keep things simple. #Overthinking kills. #winningmindset

The trust is so genuine

Our service team knows that working together as a team helps get the job done. 

How about, rather than focusing on quotas and numbers, focus on: 1. Treating women like equals in the first place. #internationalwomensday2024 #iwd2024 #equality #ifionlyhadabrain #datarogue

I’m recommending Vast Solutions for tax planning strategies.

If you're a HR person feeling overwhelmed like this it's probably because you're working on multiple different systems adding on to your manual admin work and senior management feels your spending time on inefficient tasks that don't support business needs.
