Some more reflections on the fabulous learning experiences at our Leadership Conference.

Such a joy to join the Tampa Metropolitan Area YMCA Women's Leadership Resource Network to discuss one of my favorite things: values! My personal values are: Accountability, Courage, Ease, and Kindness, and my annual mission statement includes a statement or two about my values. It's really powerful to see how this mission statement changes each year. For 2024, it reads: 🔸 My purpose is to normalize the reality of workplace transitions, and support those who seek leaving well with intention and joy. 🔸 I lead with kindness, and believe in courage and accountability as needed steps in the staircase of change. 🔸 I enter spaces authentically, with welcoming, and possess fierce quiet power. 🔸 I will be known as someone who pushed the envelope, insisted on integrity, and showed up for impact. Each of us has the opportunity to 'operationalize' our values by choosing 1-2 small ways those values can live out in the open. If you think about the folks you most respect, it's very likely that the things you admire about them have a lot to do with their personal values.

Creating an inclusive workplace demands intentional time and focus for all of us, and I’m honored to be recognized in this category with so many amazing humans! In case you need a reminder of how this impacts culture and actual business results, here are 3 great stats to share with your organizations! 1. A study by Deloitte found that organizations with inclusive cultures are 6 times more likely to be innovative and agile, and 8 times more likely to achieve better business outcomes. 2. According to a report by McKinsey, companies in the top quartile for gender diversity on executive teams are 21% more likely to outperform their industry peers in terms of profitability. 3. The Harvard Business Review reported that organizations with diverse and inclusive workplaces see higher employee engagement, increased employee retention, and improved productivity.

Its surprising how often "getting my mojo back" crops up in our discussions... see below! It really can be tough to maintain that positivity and drive sometimes when you're in the lonely top spot. Everyone is watching and interpreting your mood shadow! A Vistage group and the relationship of trust, respect, and confidentiality with the group really comes into its own now. If you run a £m business in the southwest and would like to know more, do give me a call. #peergroup #CEO #MD #founder #SME #mojo #safespace #businessleaders
