"Leadership is challenging, but the rewards of making a meaningful difference are unparalleled. Embrace your individuality, cultivate self-awareness & commit to leading with authenticity. You'll thrive as a leader & inspire those around you to achieve their best." @calmleadership.bsky.social

Leadership strategies: "I do not think one can talk about 'right' or 'wrong', as these things are largely subjective. What you can establish, though, is what is right for you. In order to be the best leader you can be, it's important to know what type of leader you are." @calmleadership.bsky.social

"When I define who I am, in order to be the truest & most authentic version of myself I must embrace my Black culture...When we bring our rich heritage, values & stories into our leadership style, we foster innovation, inspire others & create inclusive environments." @calmleadership.bsky.social

The importance of building trust as a leader: "Why treat everyone as though they are potentially dishonest, in order to catch out the few who may be?' @calmleadership.bsky.social in www.crownhouse.co.uk/calm-leaders..., @crownhousepub.bsky.social

In a challenging situation, ask: "Can I do something about the situation to make it better? If yes, then don't worry & overthink it. Better to focus on what needs doing. If no, then what is the point of worrying about things that are not in your control?" @calmleadership.bsky.social
