Most teams are far better at celebrating a few big wins than many small wins Why? Because compounded growth is harder to visualize It’s so easy to overestimate the value of bigger one-off achievements & underestimate the value of smaller marginal improvements that build on top of each other over time Both are important But small wins create the foundation for long-term success Let’s not forget to celebrate them I know I personally have way to much

During a week when so many focus on gratitude at home, how can we effectively bring gratitude into the workplace? 🙏 There is research (see post below👇) that highlights the connection between gratitude and performance, between giving thanks and building rapport with key stakeholders. 💡As an individual contributor, how can you express #gratitude to those around you to establish #trust in your working relationships? 💡As a leaders, how can you regularly recognise others’ contributions to increase #engagement? 💡As a manager, how might you use positive #feedback to boost your team’s #performance?

Starting your day with gratitude isn’t just about feeling good.. It's about setting a foundation for success. Writing down what you’re grateful for shifts your focus from problems to opportunities. Sharing gratitude isn’t just spreading positivity; it’s inspiring a culture of appreciation that can transform an entire organization. Making gratitude a ritual isn’t just a personal habit; it’s a leadership practice that can lead to higher morale and better team performance. Neglecting this practice can result in a negative atmosphere, reduced motivation, and a missed chance to build a supportive and thriving work environment. What are you thankful for today? Any more tips on how to feel grateful?

I was so excited to have the opportunity to craft my own rituals—to find the art and creativity in how I create rituals! But then I realized the dates don’t work for me, so I wanted to buy a spot for someone in my professional community. So- if you’re on the fence about signing up for Jessie Anne Zayas's workshop, here’s my 2 cents about ritual and ritualizing everything… 🎁Imagine if you treated everything like a special moment or experience to remember; how could it change your relationship with time? With being more present? 👩🏻💻how might it change your leadership style? I’ve incorporated manifesting rituals and letting go rituals into my team’s process when we’re up for a big deal! It’s brought us closer together and gives us a unique team culture experience. For me, using ritual as a tool has changed my life. It’s helped me celebrate the magnificence in the everyday moments.

🚀🔥It's Not Over Until It's Over! The Danger of Early Celebrations We've all been there. The excitement of nearing a goal, the adrenaline rush, and the temptation to celebrate a win before it's officially sealed. But what happens when we celebrate too early? 📌Complacency Sets In: When we think we've won, we might stop pushing as hard. This can lead to missed opportunities or even setbacks. 📌Overlooking Details: In our haste to celebrate, we might overlook crucial details that can make or break our success. 📌Setting Wrong Expectations: prematurely can set false expectations for your team and stakeholders. 📌Potential Embarrassment: If things don't pan out as expected, it can be a blow to one's reputation. It's essential to stay grounded, focused, and ensure that the win is concrete. Celebrate the journey, the hard work, and the lessons along the way. But always remember, it's not over until it's over. ♻️ If this resonated with you, please REPOST to remind your network about the importance of staying focused until the end! #professionaldevelopment #leadership #businessinsights #stayfocused #lessonslearned #businesswisdom

The Leaders of Global HRD irrespective of trade and businesses concerned! Who should be held responsible and for what???! It is the HRD-personnel who are solely responsible for failing to achieve the desired goal; simply for being incapable or reluctant to search out and recruit the right talents and/or person or personnel of worth and/or great impact ! Remember CVs of the extraordinary person or personality usually never found neither organized and complete nor so called eye catching!  So, It is not me but your need and priority should be first , to search me out and offer if I am really an extraordinary team player and a leader of changes in your businesses or other political or socioeconomic missions to get it successfully done!!

Many of us use Sunday to express our gratitude. 🙏 But did you know it can also make you a better leader? We all love a genuine "Thank you!". Yet few of us actually do it... Why? Fear of vulnerability...? But we should do it more because: 1) It makes us more productive. 2) It makes us more humble. 3) It makes us grow. Without any doubt... I'm most grateful for: > The failures I’ve had. > The mistakes I’ve made. > The person I’ve become. (as a result) 🗨 What are you grateful for? Happy Sunday! 🙏 #leadership #gratitude #growthmindset
