Unlearning Labels Mira, Cordelia and Peter

When the word leadership is mentioned, we often think of a role or position. The truth is something entirely different.

Leadership is being personally responsible and creating a sense of ownership and empowerment.

This episode discusses why we aim to develop leadership in everyone. We want to create a future where everyone is a leader.

Is masculinity a performance that men are conditioned into by society? How is this showing up in the workplace, and how does it affect leadership?

In this episode, we will explore masculinity and redefine what it is to be a man in the workplace and society.

Spoiler: Masculinity, is it whatever you want it to be?

In many companies, DEI initiatives stay on the level of initial training, and not much changes for the employees.

Typical DEI training initiatives can go from interesting to creating fear of getting "it"wrong.

In this episode, we want to discuss what we found from our own experience that works. And also discuss how we can go beyond the DEI training and make a difference.

Work Pressure = Results 
Is this true when it comes to applying Pressure on your team or colleagues?

It isn't, but how often do we pressure ourselves and others to make things happen. Pressure (internal and external) creates stress and frustration, and we make more mistakes when we are under pressure.

In this Unlearning Labels episode, we talk about this belief and how to change our personal and professional lives to achieve better results and enjoy the process more.

Unlearning the Definition of Work; what is the new paradigm of working after COVID 19?

This episode explores why companies are creating FOMO around coming back into the office and how we can challenge that. We have to find a way forward where companies can offer choices for their employees so that each individual can decide when and if they come into the office. 

When employees are listened to, they are empowered to make decisions about their ways of working; there is more trust, transparency, and collaboration, which positively impacts the company's culture and results.

There is often pressure to be someone different in our work environment; this can bring lots of insecurity, stifle our potential, and cause us to feel inadequate and fell like an imposter.

On the other hand, we can also get so attached to the professional labels that we feel like we lose ourselves when our status changes.

In both situations, we are shackled with fear and unable to do our best in our professional and private life. We mistakenly believe that who we are and what we do are the same. We say I am a leader, I am a manager, I'm weak, I'm not confident, I'm not good enough...

Who are you actually?
