How effectively are you helping your team members envision what's truly possible for their growth and development within your organization?
Discover how to create a leadership approach that helps team members reimagine their potential on this episode of the Work Positive Podcast with Dr. Joey Faucette. Ashley Rudolph, a leadership expert whose insights have been featured in Inc., US News, and the New York Post, shares her journey from individual contributor to VP in just five years and reveals how leaders can foster cultures where employees truly belong and become their best.
Listen as Dr. Joey and Ashley explore: ☀️ Why progress is more important than perfection in today's VUCA world ☀️ How to have meaningful "becoming conversations" that inspire team members ☀️ The importance of connecting daily tasks to company mission and goals ☀️ Shifting focus from job tasks to asking "why would the perfect candidate be excited about working here?" ☀️ Creating ceremonies and hope to give your team something meaningful to look forward to
Ashley transforms organizations by helping leaders move beyond reactivity to proactive development of their teams. Her approach focuses on creating cultures where team members feel both a sense of belonging in the present and excitement about becoming their best future selves.
🔑 Key Insight: "We were brainstorming about what this person should do, and when you have a job opening as a leader, your first inclination is to talk about all the things that this person needs to do. Instead, I said 'Let's pause. How about you tell me why should the perfect candidate be excited about working here?' That question was a circuit breaker moment."
💡 Your DOT (Do One Thing): Create a sense of hope on your team through consistent ceremonies that give people something to look forward to. Establish regular times to celebrate wins, recognize contributions, and contextualize the team's work within the larger business perspective. Hope exists when people have something meaningful to anticipate.
