What are the keys to good leadership? Hear about all this and more from this episode&#8217;s guest Wendy Ryan as we discuss the topic &#8216;Learn Lead Lift: Think, Act and Inspire Your Way to Greatness.&#8217;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><b>Here are three reasons why you should listen to the full episode:&nbsp;<\/b><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unlock the keys to great Leadership\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Discover how Mindset, Skillset, and Behavior distinguish the type of leader you are.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Learn how to change or affect change as a leader<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><b>Episode Highlights<\/b><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><b>Are leaders born or made?&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/b><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wendy shared that leaders are not necessarily born or made.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wendy explains that what we do with the raw material life gives us determines if we become great leaders or not.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wendy explains that one of the main characteristics of a leader is intentionality about their actions. Intentional leaders are not only concerned with themselves but with the members of their team and its overall mission.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wendy reminds us that leadership does not have a specific look and despite humans creating staples of what we believe a good leader looks like or traits they should possess, we can find good leadership in environments such as our homes.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><b>Aspire to Inspire<\/b><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wendy explains that life is our greatest teacher and that the experiences we have in life are the things that shape us and allow us to acquire the right tools needed for effective leadership.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">People become intimidated when it comes to being an inspiratory leader. However, it is not always about fitting the usual extroverted model that makes someone an impactful leader, things that contribute to being an inspirational leader include, but are not limited to the way you show interest in your team and the way you interact with and value people on a personal level.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><b>The Right Mindset of Leadership&nbsp;<\/b><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wendy highlights that it is vital for people to realize that we don&#8217;t all start at the same place in the race of life but, no matter where we start from, we all start with something. One of the most important things we can leverage in life is our mindset.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our mindsets affect or determine your course of action in life. Wendy gives us a list of different mindsets and how each affects us as leaders.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Growth Mindset &#8211; A way of thinking that knows or always tries to learn and improve.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Grit Mindset &#8211; Recognizes that failure doesn&#8217;t always mean to give up but rather to revisit, readjust and try again because success isn&#8217;t always the first thing we experience.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Identity Mindset\/Identity matters &#8211; Wendy highlights how important it is to recognize that everybody is different and each person&#8217;s experience is shaped by their identity. Leaders need to tap into empathy and acknowledge the differences each person experiences.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><b>How do we change&nbsp;<\/b><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wendy believes that significant steps to changing or being better leaders include;\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Changing your mindset &#8211; Understanding how people think and learning how to think about our reasoning ability enables us to learn more skills as we grow.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Examining your Skillset &#8211; After understanding one&#8217;s mindset, you need to figure out the skill sets required to make you a better leader. These include emotional intelligence and systems that help you to plan for contingencies.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Behaviour &#8211; Changing one&#8217;s mindset and working on one&#8217;s skill set is important as a leader. However, ultimately it is the behavior of a person that is the final demonstration of good leadership. Wendy uses the acronym FIDAH to talk about the five behaviors that are critical to leadership.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">i) F- Focus<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ii) I- Integrity\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;iii) D- Decisiveness<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">iv) A- Authenticity\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">v) H- Humility\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><b>3 Powerful Quotes from This Episode<\/b><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIt isn&#8217;t about volume, it&#8217;s about intention.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cMindsets are the lenses through which we view the world.\u201d&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cA lot of our life experience gives us the opportunity to acquire the mindsets and the skillsets and the behaviors that we need to become great leaders.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><b>About Wendy&nbsp; Ryan <\/b><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><b>Wendy Ryan<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is the CEO of Kadabra, an interdisciplinary team of leadership and organizational change experts based in Silicon Valley, California.
