How to Lead with Confidence

This episode of Business for Humans is about showing up with confidence as a leader.

Confidence is the centerpoint of a good leader. Confidence isn’t about ego or stubbornly pushing people to do what you want them to do, it’s about standing in your conviction. 

Good leaders see potential in their people and have a vision for how to get them there. 

When they show up ‘wishy washy’ or changing their mind if someone is unhappy, if they continually question their ideas; that lack of confidence will show up as a lack of conviction, a lack of vision and it will erode the team’s trust.

It’s not important to push ideas on people, listening is important too, but when they push back, know what you stand for. Don’t let their emotions or actions sway your confidence. 

When you stand tall and believe in your ideas; other people start standing taller too. When they know you have a vision for them, that you have their back; they build more confidence too.
