Top Five Things Women Should Start Doing to Show Up As a Leader!

1.
Own Your Power No matter what your role, you have power! You have power to influence situations...
make decisions...
set direction...
and respond appropriately.
No matter who you are.
It's always up to you to step it up and own your power by using a "proactive approach.
" Successful women I know all seem to have the word "initiative" as their middle name.
2.
Own the Way You Show Up They say that the first step to success is just showing up.
But HOW you show up makes a difference every time.
Know that your presence is extraordinary - it's like no other.
And it speaks volumes about you.
93% percent of communication is non-verbal.
Always, be mindful of your body language.
Notice the messages are you conveying at all times.
I have watched women walking around or sitting at conferences with frowns on their faces when they could be smiling and connecting with each other.
I met a woman who introduced herself and then put her hand in her mouth to get something out of her teeth! I've seen women leave the room by walking in right front of the speaker while she's speaking.
The list goes on.
These things are memorable and can make or break people's lasting impressions of you - and you may not even be aware of it! 3.
Own How You Speak How you speak makes a big difference.
But first, you must consider your audience! Remarkably, in just the first three minutes you can learn about who they are, what they are interested in, and how you can help.
But, it's critical that you ask one or two powerful questions first.
Then close your mouth, breathe and really listen! By listening to both the business side and human side of this person, you can adapt what you are talking about by focusing on relevant topics and in a way that will engage them.
You instantly will become someone that leaves a positive impression they will never forget! 4.
Own Your Integrity Always do the right thing and do the right thing right.
If you can't do something 100% - do it at 85% percent - but know that you own your decision.
There are many things that can be done this way and its okay, as long as we accept it as true.
If you say you will do something or follow up, take responsibility for what you can and can't do.
Sometimes we don't want to say "no" but we can "say when" or "how much.
" Be real to yourself and to others - you can't fake you are you or what you do no matter how hard you try.
And people appreciate and trust a person who is sincere in their open approach.
5.
Own the Outcome However you want to achieve it - step up and make it a conscious choice.
Lots of us have trouble making the appropriate choices for fear of ruffling feathers.
You may know that you need to work alone on something because of your expertise, deadlines, efficiency, etc.
and will need to coordinate it appropriately to be able to do that.
If you decide you need to take on a partner or a team, create agreements at the beginning.
I have seen many projects stall or fail because things were not thought through at the beginning regarding the task expectations and each person's role.
"Begin with the end in mind" and PLAN for the outcome - it's much more likely you will achieve it!
