Earlier in my career, I frequently worried about failure.
I spent too much time making decisions and then ruminating if I made the right call or said the right thing. I know I'm not alone in this.
I knew to become the leader I aspired to be, I would have to learn to believe in my own decision-making abilities—and I wanted to coach other women to do the same.
This episode provides six strategies to strengthen and reinforce your decision-making skills.
1. Coach yourself as you would a friend
2. Create more options
3. Prepare for mistakes
4. Acknowledge the role of emotions
5. Picture the future
6. Take the first step
Your One Bold Move: Make the decision. Your role as a leader is to keep moving things forward, making the best decisions you can on behalf of the team, the organization, and yourself.
