What Self-Awareness Really Is (and How to Cultivate It)
Dr Nia Thomas is a thought leader in self-aware leadership and practices self-aware leadership every single day in her role as Director in a Children's Charity.
She has an allergic reaction when she hears the phrase 'you shouldn't care what anyone else thinks'.
We talked about the perils of heeding that advice and how to avoid going the other way and becoming a total people pleaser!
Topics we covered:
* How to become aware of your blind spots.
* The pros and cons of 360 feedback.
* The cautions around self-awareness. How to avoid overthinking every encounter you have with your team.
* How you can be an authentic leader whilst taking others' opinions into account.
* How to judge when constructive feedback is useful or noise that should be disregarded.
* How can leaders navigate the fine line between caring about others' thoughts and maintaining their authenticity?
