3 Value Bombs

1) It all starts with really understanding what being your authentic self means. Fear does not exist when we are in our true and full authentic self.

2) Fear-based leadership is a set of behaviors that leaders can demonstrate when they are fueled by things that they are afraid of – but that they may not know.

3) In order to be truly comfortable in our own skin, whether we are a leader or an employee, we have to be able to be vulnerable.

Today’s Audio MASTERCLASS: Eradicating Fear-Based Leadership

[1:15] – Amy shares something that she believes about becoming successful that most people disagree with.

• During the first half of life, success is all about things we’re gaining. Gaining new skills, gaining new job opportunities, gaining new ways of navigating the business world or our professional world…
• Success now is really more about letting go.

[2:52] – The founding of Authenticx and what the company is working towards.

• Authenticx is a conversational AI company with a mission to help humans understand humans, and specifically, humans who are in a position of power in our healthcare industry.

[5:11] – What is fear-based leadership?

• Fear-based leadership is a set of behaviors that leaders can demonstrate when they are fueled by things that they are afraid of – but that they may not know.
• When leaders have not dealt with their own internal baggage or internal challenges it tends to show up in nasty ways in the workplace.
• If a leader has been feeling insecure or worried about a performance metric, they might use fear to gaslight their employees.

[7:23] – Steve Jobs, Elon Musk, and the fear-based approach.

• There are some cultures where humans feel inspired when there is a command and control style leader at the top.
• It’s not sustainable because there are times when we make mistakes. There are times when we’re experiencing a failure, and if our leaders aren’t there for us, then we don’t have a mentor or a guide to get us through to the other side.

[13:48] – The first step in moving away from a fear-based leadership approach.

• Self-examination. You have to understand what the core behaviors are that you’re showing up with every day. Do a discovery deep dive to understand what is at the root of those behaviors.

[15:05] – The importance of unlearning fear-based leadership for employees and leaders.

• In order to be truly comfortable in our own skin, whether we are a leader or an employee, we have to be able to be vulnerable.
• Be aware of where you feel weak and vocalize that in a way that shows strength.

[17:18] – Amy’s key takeaway and call to action.

• It all starts with really understanding what being your authentic self means. Fear does not exist when we are in our true and full authentic self.
