In this episode of David Roberts´ CALM leadership series he talks about the importance of having a better relationship with yourself. David explains how to make sure that you don´t try to do everything yourself, set the wrong tone, not care enough to look after yourself and your team.

David shares 5 things you can do to get the balance right and build a great relationship with yourself, and, therefore, your team.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• As a leader it is easy to become very preoccupied with results, which can sometimes lead to your trying to do it all on your own.
• If your team sees you as someone who cares more about themselves than anyone, you will lose the backing of your team.
• If you don´t really care about yourself, you won´t be able to properly care for your team.
• During tough times, it is especially important that you invest in and take care of yourself.
• Check in on your reason, every 90 days.
• Put in place well being rituals e.g. going dancing twice a month to lift your spirits.
• Observe how you react to things, understand why, and make adjustments, as necessary.

BEST MOMENTS

‘You can´t be loved, if you don´t love yourself.’

‘If you're doing that at your own expense, then you're going to lose yourself, and therefore, you're going to lose your team.’

‘The human brain works well in 90-day cycles.’

‘Your reactions are the symptoms, if you like, of your mental and emotional state.’

ABOUT THE SHOW

People with purpose make a difference. Imagine a world where more people can just get their purpose out of them, into a plan and then actually make it happen. What a world that would be - People everywhere finding meaning and harnessing that to bring inspiration and energy to each and every day, changing lives for the better. But no one ever achieved anything on their own - we all have something unique to bring and that means we all have to play our part - if we want to go far, we have to go together and lead or serve towards a vision of the world we want to see. Everyone has a story to tell, and this show is where these stories come to life.
