Now assign some action:

➡️ Strategically Recognize - what gets recognized gets repeated.

➡️ Increase Interactions - create more opportunities for people to be invested and give a sh*t for each other.

➡️ Interaction Corrections - give actionable feedback.

I teach managers an exercise I call the Culture Audit.

Your team’s culture is a result of what you recognize, what’s allowed, and the way people interact.

There are 4 questions to ask yourself quarterly:

[Katie Ceccarini - Endurance Management Coaching @EnduranceBoss]

1️⃣ What do I LOVE about the way my team engages with one another?

2️⃣ What types of interactions am I wanting to see more of?

3️⃣ What’s an interaction I’ve witnessed that I wish I could go back in time and re-do?

4️⃣ What have I let slide and it’s time to get back on track?

[Katie Ceccarini - Endurance Management Coaching @EnduranceBoss]

Friendly reminder if you're on the hunt for your next gig...

Start with WANT, not CAN.

You CAN do a lot, focus on finding roles you WANT to do.

Want > can.

💡 Are we playing offensive or defensive?
💡 If we didn’t pivot, what’s at risk?

Shiny object syndrome.

It causes whiplash to team members.
Contributes to feelings of burnout.

And all too often, shiny objects masquerade as a strategic quick pivot.

A few gut check questions to help distinguish between the two:

When it comes to leadership development, leaders are provided competencies, structures, checklists. This is all visible external work.

What we should be starting with is the inner work.

Go in so you can lead out.

Tomorrow, my newsletter community will learn the top reason leadership development programming fails.

Here's a sneak peek...

Your inner game dictates your outer game.

Your inner narratives influence your interactions.
Your internal assumptions impact your actions.

[Katie Ceccarini - Endurance Management Coaching @EnduranceBoss]

Take action....

1. What did each team member do last month to make you proud?
2. What is the quality of each team member that you'd clone if you could.
3. Tell each person in a genuine way.

Set the tone for the back half of the year. Game on!

Managers - it's time to flex these two muscles: Recognition and Appreciation.

And guess what...they aren't the same thing.

Recognition = acknowledgement of work done.

Appreciation = gratitude for WHO the person is.

[Katie Ceccarini - Endurance Management Coaching @EnduranceBoss]

Example:
"Thank you for knocking out that report, I really appreciate it."
vs.
"You are incredibly thoughtfully with everything you approach and I'm grateful to work with you."

There is no growth without reflection.

3 reflection questions 👇

✨ What was most effective about my leadership in June?
✨ What’s better today than it was 6 months ago?
✨ How are people receiving me?

Strong self-awareness = increased effectiveness.

Two powerful questions to reflect upon heading into the weekend:

1️⃣ What am I like when I’m doing what I love?

2️⃣ What would it take to make it more of a priority?

Clue into who you are at your best.

Then find ways to create more opportunities to be at your best.

Is this you 👇

You’re a manager of people and you're putting off a conversation.

You're afraid of the reaction.
You're worried about shifting your relationship dynamic.

🔔 Ring a bell?

Your first step - recognize your assumptions.

[Katie Ceccarini - Endurance Management Coaching @EnduranceBoss]

1. What’s an assumption you’re holding?
2. Notice the impact it’s having on your action.
3. Is this the impact you desire?

If not, will you courageously let your assumptions strengthen your approach vs allowing them to keep you on the sidelines?

[Katie Ceccarini - Endurance Management Coaching @EnduranceBoss]

Here are some of my favorite:

💫 What are we really trying to solve for?
💫 What’s the short vs long term solution?
💫 What are the trade-offs we need to be thinking about?
💫 What could be unintended consequences?
💫 What am I missing?
💫 What else?

What would you add?

[Katie Ceccarini - Endurance Management Coaching @EnduranceBoss]

Underappreciated skill:

A manager who develops a team of strong decision makers.

How do they do it?

They are strong coaches.

They don’t lead with answers.
They lead with questions.

They model their thinking.
They involve their people.
