Manage episode 394422933 series 2866276
Shandel and Melanie interview Aliza Brown about her experience navigating the Plant stage of growth. Aliza discusses shedding old mindsets of overcommitting and multitasking in favor of consistency, accountability, and communicating clearly. She shares obstacles faced like not asking enough questions, and strategies used like finding trusted advisors. Aliza emphasizes the importance of evolving one's leadership approach through self-reflection on values.
Key Takeaways:
- The importance of shedding old mindsets like multitasking and short-term gratification in favor of consistency, accountability, and focusing on long-term impact.
- The importance of communication, both written and in-person, and finding the right method for the situation. Too much digital communication can lead to misinterpretation.
- Asking clarifying questions upfront to fully understand expectations and negotiate support as needed for important projects.
- Learning to say no and prioritize the most important tasks, rather than taking on too much and risking burnout. Focus on quality over quantity of work.
- Using self-reflection to identify personal values and strengths, and ensure one's leadership approach aligns with those over time as situations evolve.
- Leaning on a support system of trusted advisors for honest feedback during challenging times, rather than isolating oneself.
- Unlearning habits that don't serve growth, like assuming rather than inquiring, and relearning strategies tied to sustainable progress.
