Training Others On What Your Boundaries Are Apr 20, 2022

Show notes

Boundaries are only as good as your ability to communicate them.

It's great for you to know what your boundaries are, but if other people don't know about them, they're kind of useless.

It's important to have boundaries and communicate them in a clear way.

When communicating, one of the most important things to have is empathy. You don't want to sound rude by saying NO to people.

Keep in mind that you're saying no to the request, not the person.

When your leader starts giving you a lot of work, you can say, "Can you help me prioritize my current projects so I know what I should be working on first and what I can do later?"

Another technique is to have an open and honest conversation with your leader. Let them know that you have a lot going on and are feeling stressed and that you're working on being more productive.

Letting people know what you're facing and how you're trying to come up with potential solutions can be a healthy thing to do.

Focusing on Technology Your Teams Actually Need Apr 13, 2022

Show notes

Technology is changing all of the time, so it's best to conduct technology audits in your organization on a yearly basis.

Take a step back and look at the ways in which you're working and where technology might be able to play a role. Identify the bottlenecks and challenges you see.

If you start using new technologies inside your company, it's important to collect data on the progress. Are employees satisfied with those technologies?

Don't assume that just because you give people a piece of technology, they will automatically start using it. You need an ongoing feedback process so you can keep improving and making changes to your organization.

Technology has a 30% impact on an employee's overall experience. That's because if an employee doesn't feel they have access to the tools and resources to get their job done, they start to become disengaged and frustrated and eventually will want to leave your organization and work elsewhere.

Coaching and Mentoring Different Generations at Work Apr 06, 2022

Show notes

Every employee inside of your organization has something to offer regardless of the generation they're from or the stage of life they are in. This is why mentoring can flow both ways, with younger employees mentoring older employees or with older employees mentoring younger employees.

In the old days, we always had the older and more experienced people mentor younger people. But in this new world of work, we're starting to see that mentoring can go both ways.

When mentoring goes the other way, meaning a younger employee is mentoring an older employee, we refer to this as reverse mentoring.

Reverse mentoring is not only a great way to build trust and collaboration, but it's a wonderful way to share ideas inside of organizations. Reverse mentoring can help break through generational stereotypes that might exist inside your company.

Knowing When To Speak Up At Work Mar 30, 2022

Show notes

Complaining and speaking up are not the same thing!

Everyone should be comfortable with speaking up at work.

The first reason to speak up at work is to share an opinion about something.

Chances are, you were hired because they like what you bring to the table--your opinion, unique perspective, and the things you care about.

Have an opinion and share it, but do so in a tactful way that doesn't put other people down or hurt their feelings.

The second type of speaking up we need to practice is about driving actual change.

When you speak up inside of your organization to drive change, the most important thing you can do is have a solution.

A lot of employees are good at complaining. But if asked what to do to change it, they don't know what to say. That's not an effective way to drive change inside of your organization.

It's crucial for you to speak the language of the business and have some sort of a proposed solution that you want to see happen if you truly want to drive change.

Why You Need To Pay Attention To The Tangential Mar 23, 2022

Show notes

Most of the time, we're focused on what is right in front of us, especially with our careers.

But we need to pay attention to the tangentials. That means opening up a bit to notice the things on the sides related to our main focus.

For example, let's say you are in finance.

If you're someone who is paying attention to the tangentials, you would probably notice that there are a lot of conversations happening around the impact AI and technology might have on your job.

Because of this, you could ask yourself, where else can my skills and abilities be used besides just finance?

Then you would realize that your skills are also very much in demand in areas like HR data science and people analytics. You can now quickly pivot and bring your skills to another area.

If you had your blinders on, you would be very much stuck in finance and not have as many options to grow and expand.

This is why it's very important to pay attention to the tangentials.
