If you see this sign at work, it essentially means management is asking you to stuff down your emotions. And honestly that’s not the healthiest approach.

Work is also life, and part of being in management is showing empathy towards our colleagues and subordinates.

So instead of positing a sign like this, offer an ear, ask your employee how you can best support them. You never know what they are going through. And that connection, it makes a positive impact on their well-being, which creates a ripple-effect on other employees, your reputation and the company as a whole.

A framework to instill in our employees to use mid-friction. Because let’s face it, it happens more often than not. A discussion goes sideways or a coworkers says something that the other person takes the wrong way. No ill-intention was meant to be given but resentment begins. Not all of us have trained our brained to let things go so easily. That’s where the mission signal comes in. Train your employees to flex the mission signal when things go seemingly bad. It’s an internal question mid-disagreement: Am I being mission focused? Or am I being inner-focused? In other words, is this argument aligned with the company’s mission or my own? After all, we are at work to work towards the company mission, not our own. Let us work together instead of against each other.

One of the best things about working with businesses is building a referral network!
I’ve had the pleasure of meeting amazing business owners around the North Tarrant area and learning about how they have come to where they are and their plans of where they’re going.

It’s truly remarkable how networking can help you plug into your community, but it also encourages you to connect others together too. Not out of obligation, but out of the genuine willingness to see others succeed.

Being around other people who share in similar values of success and truly see, appreciate and celebrate each other is where I want to be. Don’t you?

You gain trust through simple conversations. Are you having those with your employees?

Your team may trust you, but they don’t always speak up. There are only 4 reasons your team stays quiet. Wanna know what they are?

It’s definitely not related to laziness.

1- They’re afraid to look ignorant, so they don’t ask.

2- They’re afraid of looking negative, so they don’t flag a risky task or project.

3- They’re afraid of being disruptive, so they don’t challenge the plan.

4- They’re afraid of looking incompetent, so they don’t admit a mistake.

Four fears, one silence, and it’s costing you more than you think

When you hire a facilitator like myself to come in and talk about these fears in a language employees can relate to, , your employees will begin to feel the kind of safe space that’s necessary to speak openly.

It’s not that they don’t trust you, it’s that the space to speak up has yet to be created.

When someone brings a story about their work-lif, it’s important that we take the time to acknowledge the feelings of our colleagues and employees. Brene Brown calls it practicing story stewardship. The fact that your employees brings their story shows trust and courage. Honor that trust, don’t push it away by tapping out and dismissing them or taking over by making their issue your story. Acknowledge the feeling, repeat the facts, and show your employee that you will support them in a way that will help them best (because everyone’s needs are as different as we are).

An owner told me recently: "I've got a whole shelf of leadership books. I just don't know which page to be on today."

Home service owners are some of the most self-aware and self-actualizing people I work with — you're already reading, already reflecting, already trying new communication tools. But between running calls, managing techs, and meeting with vendors, there's no time to translate a book into a repeatable way of showing up for your team.

That's not on you, it's a systematic problem needing a tweak.

My 1:1 Owner Coaching is built for exactly this — when you've done the internal work but need someone to help you build the actual practice around it. I offer 6 sessions that is built around your business goals, problem-solving and giving you a chance to finally BREATHE.

If that's where you're at, I'd love to grab a Strategy Call and see if it's a fit for us to work together. https://bit.ly/PivotPronto30minStrategyCall
