New Leadership Traits, Part 2: The 3 Big Cs - EP038

Women's Empowerment School

Strong leaders show up as the best version of themselves in difficult times. Recently, Sylvia endured the death of her beloved father and moved her mother into a nursing home, circumstances requiring that she navigate unknown territory and make a great many decisions. And along the way, she discovered several new leadership traits that supported her through the process.

Today, Sylvia introduces the 3 Big Cs of leadership in a post-patriarchal world—courage, commitment and compassion. She discusses the old paradigm of courage in the form of a lonely hero, sharing her new definition of courage as a willingness to consciously step into the unknown and deliberately embrace the situation of feeling uncomfortable.

Sylvia goes on to expand our understanding of commitment and explain how it involves daily dedication to the best possible outcomes AND wellbeing for ourselves and others. Listen in to understand why compassion is NOT a weakness and learn how to make heart-centered decisions that serve you, the bottom line and everyone involved.
