  • Biggest driver of WORK LIFE BALANCE.

    Biggest driver of WORK LIFE BALANCE.

    Daily writing prompt
    How do you balance work and home life?

    Maintain a healthy work life balance is key to the well being of your children. But have you realized the biggest driver of work life balance?

    If you are led by a visionary leader and you are lucky to be part of a trusting team you feel safe at work. This in turn leads to a healthy work life balance.

    As Simon Sinek says:

    Work-life balance has nothing to do with the hours we work or the stress we suffer. It has to do with where we feel safe. If we feel safe at home, but we don’t feel safe at work, then we will suffer what we perceive to be a work-life imbalance.”

    Thus it is key to be surrounded by members of a trusting team to lead a fulfilled life.

  • Why I Love Team Sport?

    Why I Love Team Sport?

    Bloganuary writing prompt
    What are your favorite sports to watch and play?

    Both hockey and soccer that I love are both team sports. I will elaborate in this blog post why I love team sport.

    Team sports are characterized by high performing and trusting teams. When you experience the team in action, you realize the value of working and being successful as a group.

    As Simon Sinek says:

    A team is NOT a group of people who WORK TOGETHER.

    A team is a group of people who TRUST each other”

    Also I am constantly reminded that SUCCESS is a TEAM SPORT.

    Please read this blog on Navy Seals and what makes them so SUCCESSFUL.

  • Encourage Vulnerability for THIS Reason

    Encourage Vulnerability for THIS Reason

    Bloganuary writing prompt
    Can you share a positive example of where you’ve felt loved?

    The positive example of when i have felt loved that I am going to share is of being part of TRUSTING TEAMS. Leader of a trusting team encourages vulnerability.

    Though in hindsight it might seem odd, but its true when members of a team feel trusted they are open to share their vulnerability.

    Trusting teams are ones where everyone loves to play a role and more often than not these end up being high performance teams.

    I have had the good fortune of being part of TRUSTING TEAMS wherein members have felt comfortable of being vulnerable and sharing their individual weaknesses without fear.

    Needless to say these are environments wherein you feel a sense of belonging and hence loved.

    Simon Sinek has shared multiple insights related to trusting teams which can be found in these blogposts.

    Once you get a chance go through some of these wonderful YouTube videos on why we should encourage vulnerability.
