Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg looks at why a smaller percentage of women than men reach the top of their professions.

“…women systematically underestimate their own abilities. If you test men and women, and you ask them questions on totally objective criteria like GPAs, men get it wrong slightly high, and women get it wrong slightly low.”

“Women do not negotiate for themselves in the workforce. A study in the last two years of people entering the workforce out of college showed that 57 percent of boys entering, or men, I guess, are negotiating their first salary, and only seven percent of women.”

In what other areas are we not negotiating, or raising our hands with confidence?

1. Non-negotiables How do you ensure your team’s culture sings the same rhythmic tune as your organisations vision and values? What are your non-neogtiables as a leader? • Setting team agreements • Conscious and unconscious

behaviours that are given permission – who has training?

2. Setting your team’s direction:

How do you align the direction of your team with the direction of the business?

How are the decision making capacities of your team and yourself as a leader impact your business?

• Expectations • Travelling wells (KPI’s)

3. Flexibility

We all know we have three circles to manage in our life. How do we manage the flexibility required for each circle?

Which has the loudest voice? 1. Your circle of influence 2.Your circle of concern 3. Your circle of control

4. Commitment Coaching College’s theory – your team is a mirror of your leadership. You can only manage if you measure………………….. As a leader how do you demonstrate your commitment to measuring success? If you were to take a helicopter view of your team’s culture on a scale of 1 – 5; how would you rate that your team demonstrates their commitment to measuring their success?

If it’s in your heart, it’s in your head

How are the daily lessons/ learnings record for each team member’s personal

and professional development?

What is your heartbeat OF

COMMITMENT?

Transactional vs Transformational Leadership

What is its HEARTBEAT for a culture of innovation and continuous improvement?

5. FUN FACTOR

• What is the fun factor?

• How does your team celebrate its successes and its learnings?

What are your 5 main steps to ensuring your leadership muscles are getting a balanced work out?
