Juts seen this - and found it very powerful. We live in a time of unprecedented challenges and opportunities. We face global issues such as climate change, poverty, inequality, violence, and pandemics. We also have access to amazing resources such as technology, education, innovation, and collaboration. How can we use our potential to create a better future for ourselves and others? How can we make a positive difference in the world? I believe there are three simple but powerful steps that anyone can take to make a positive difference in the world. These steps are: ·       Be aware - being informed, curious, and open-minded ·       Be compassionate - empathetic, caring, kind and respecting and valuing the differences and similarities among us ·       Be active - engaged, involved, committed, creative, innovative, and resourceful. This all leads to taking action to address the issues that matter to us and others ! #iwd2024 #arcadis #improvingqualityoflife

💯Steven Bartlett, Despite the equal potential in all of us, few truly believe in their abilities and strive for their utmost potential. It begins by reshaping their belief system, refining character traits, and mastering essential skills in their focus areas. Our ultimate goal? To cultivate personal greatness by chasing the best version of yourself, not for validation but to inspire others. Happy International Women's Day 🙌 💪 #IWD2024 #womenleaders #empowerment #womenentrepreneurs #womeninbusiness #womeninvestors #investing #entrepreneurship

THIS RIGHT HERE!!

I couldn’t agree more with this sentiment. This belief that every woman is naturally resourceful and capable is not only more empowering but true. This is very much the backbone of a good coaching relationship. As a coach I’m not here to tell you what to do but to offer support in exploring your options so that you confidently decide what the best next step is for you. Confidence comes after doing. So whatever your goal, go for it! Here’s to a future of more empowered women. 🥂 Happy International Women’s Day. #internationalwomensday #coaching

Last year I completed Oxford Women’s Leadership Development Programme, and one of the many lightbulb moments was how self doubt can be the enemy of progress for women. For example, research has shown that when men are asked to identify their first experience of leadership, most reference their childhood, perhaps captaining a sports team. Women, on the other hand, typically reference their first managerial role at work. So as we look to the IWD theme; invest in women, accelerate progress, to all the wonderful women in my network, please invest in yourself. Self-acceptance in such a critical part of development, and acknowledging your abilities as a female leader. Here the brilliant Reshma Saujani recalls her own lightbulb moment of self-acceptance, and how it has positively impacted her self-belief, confidence and agency. Steven Bartlett demonstrates the powerful role of communication, and that even in the simple act of sharing this video with his network, he has invested in women. Happy Women’s Day 2024!

Success often hinges on mindset; individuals may miss opportunities by doubting their capabilities. The difference between success and stagnation lies in embracing challenges. When self-doubt creeps in, it becomes a barrier to exploring one's full potential. Don't surrender to uncertainty; believe in your abilities. Many forego opportunities due to fear of inadequacy, failing to realize their untapped potential. It's crucial to break free from limiting thoughts, challenging oneself, and fostering a resilient attitude. By refusing to give in to self-doubt, individuals can unlock a realm of possibilities, paving the way for personal and professional growth. Embrace challenges, persevere, and trust in your journey.

We need to change the script

This. All of this. Literally, my corporate girls and I do this daily. I am incredibly proud of us. We have earned every single right to be 100% comfortable in any room because we do the work and we get the results. Often at higher levels than what is considered to be the norm. #womenwholead #marketingmaven #marketingmavericks #standingonbusiness

A perspective I strongy hold. And strive toward daily.
