Wk 13 - Get Insight into Your Displayed Emotions

Published almost 2 years ago • 1 min read

Hello Reader,

Get Insight into Your Displayed Emotions

As a leader, seeking outside feedback and support is important to understand better how others perceive your actions and emotions.

Here are ways you can get external feedback and support:

  1. Seek feedback from your team: Ask your team for feedback on your leadership style, communication, and emotional intelligence. This helps you identify areas for improvement and develop a growth plan.
  2. Find a mentor: Look for someone in your industry or a leader you admire who can offer guidance and support as you work to develop your emotional intelligence and leadership skills.
  3. Join a leadership group: Join a leadership group or networking organization where you can connect with other leaders and gain insights into their experiences and perspectives.
  4. Take an assessment: Consider taking an emotional intelligence or other leadership assessment to better understand your strengths and weaknesses.
  5. Work with a coach: Consider working with an executive coach who can help you develop a plan for improving your emotional intelligence and leadership skills.

Seeking feedback and support can be a humbling experience, but it is an integral part of personal and professional growth. Being open to feedback and improving your emotional intelligence allows you to become a more effective leader and build stronger relationships with your team.
