[Ep#229] How to Win the War on Talent
I am thrilled to bring you the latest episode of the Women in Leadership Podcast: "How to Win the War on Talent". This episode features an enlightening conversation with the insightful Chandell Labbozzetta, a best-selling author and leadership strategist. We'll talk about transformational versus transactional leadership, highlighting the importance of self-awareness, quality questions, and collaborative empowerment in building high-performing teams. They discuss the significance of psychological safety, transparent career pathways, and continuous personal and professional growth. Chandell also offers valuable insights into leveraging fulfillment, purpose, and emotional connections to attract and retain top talent across all generations. Be sure to listen through to the end for details on downloading Chandell's book "Confident Closing" and other resources to elevate your leadership journey. Join us as we explore the dynamics of effective leadership and how to inspire the leaders of tomorrow. Here are 3 key takeaways from this powerful episode: Self-Leadership as the Foundation: Chandell underscores that leading oneself effectively is the key to influencing others and achieving transactional success. This starts with self-respect and asking quality questions to take ownership. Transformative Delegation: Adopting the "see 1, do 1, teach 1" method can significantly improve delegation and coaching within teams. This approach ensures that team members are not just handed tasks but are empowered and trained to achieve their goals. Creating Psychological Safety: Building a workplace culture that fosters trust, engagement, and psychological safety is crucial. This environment allows employees to grow without fear of reprimands for mistakes, leading to increased productivity and innovation.   RESOURCES:   3 Stages of the Customer Journey Podcast Episode   Book in for an Authority Audit  5 Pillars to Build Visibility, Generate Leads and Enrol Clients with Ease Quiz  Are You Ready to Launch Your Coaching Business Podcast?

Joining us is the extraordinary Analiza Wolf, CEO of Women of Color RISE, executive coach, acclaimed author of "The Myths of Success: A Women of Color's Guide to Leadership," and host of the Women of Color Rise podcast. She brings her wealth of experience to the table, sharing insights into the unique challenges women—particularly women of color—face in climbing the corporate ladder. In this candid conversation, Analiza unpacks the concept of the "concrete ceiling," navigates the nuances of networking, and champions the need for authentic relationship-building as a means to bolster job security and career progression. She bravely shares her personal trials and teaches us the transformative power of owning our mistakes and embracing vulnerability in leadership.

If we can't change the people we're around, we can change the conversations we have to ensure we're getting the positivity and support needed to thrive. 🔑 Crunch Time Question: Asking, "If I am to achieve a dream that had previously seemed impossible within the next 12 months, what would I have to let go of, and what would I have to embrace?" is a powerful way to gain clarity and focus on the steps necessary to achieve our goals. 🔑 Focus on the Fix, Not the Fault: Shifting our focus to finding solutions rather than dwelling on faults can be a game-changer. This mindset shift allows us to take responsibility, learn from setbacks, and move forward productively. RESOURCES:   Continue the conversation over on our Community!
