“Leadership capital is the currency, and you're going to invest your leadership capital in other people and they're going to invest their leadership capital in you against an aligned set of goals.”
“I had to get creative once I discovered what it was. ‘How do I apply that? How do I turn that into something that I can lean into and leverage?’”
“Those of us who are in a leadership position, the expectation is that you're supposed to have all the answers. And to have the humility to say, ‘I don't know’ and to actually then lean into where we're going with connections, lean into the broader team, lean into the collective to bring their experiences, bring their superpowers to bear in that versus trying to solve it on our own or to have to be the one to come up with the answer."
“We actually have to work at finding time to get to know the people who we're working with. If you're not careful you can end up in such transactional relationships.”
“It's not around trying to sell more, spend less today, but actually get to know each other a little better and know who we are and what our individual goals, ambitions, and missions are so that we can lead.”
“Self confidence is not taught. It's built over time.”
“So much of the problem with imposter syndrome is you take yourself out of opportunities. No one's even said anything to you yet, right? They made the right decision to put you in the room. Your job is to stay in the room until somebody actually comes and gets you out of the room.”
