I’m so happy to bring you an exclusive 21 day communication challenge – the end result? A better workplace in 2015 because of you.
From December 1 – 21, I will share quick leadership communication tips to help you get ready for the New Year. 2015 is yours. Own it!
Day 6 challenge: Embrace boring.
Look the reality is – unless you are Beyoncé, the work you do from day to day is boring. (See image below from her On The Run Tour – case in point).
Now don’t take me to be a pessimist.
I’m a realist.
And so – as it happens that we experience boredom at work, it shows up in our tone. Our interaction with others.
Passivity can take down even the confident.
Seek significance in the work you do – in the work others do.
Take time to have the new team member explore ideas openly with others.
Make your team meetings a forum to express topics – keep things fresh.
Engage with your peers and colleagues – ask around to figure out how you can do something differently.
Boredom can set in – but drive lies within you.
Prioritize open conversations on how you, your team, your peers can do something better.
The answer lies within someone.
The reality is people need help opening up.
As the leader you are, stimulate creativity.
Ask. Say no to boredom.
