The Power Of Support

Firstly, I would like to thank all of those people who wrote to me last week about my article on, The Joy and Pain of Leadership. It seems that quite a few people were going through similar experiences. We really are in this together and the power of supporting each other cannot be underestimated.

In fact, it made me think about the last time that I contacted certain people, just to check in and ask how they are. Often when you are in a leadership role people just assume that you have it all together. But often that supposed strength is what is expected and is for the benefit of others, not because it is necessarily real at the time.

When was the last time you contacted a friend, a colleague or even your boss, just to ask how they are? It is surprising what a huge difference that can make to a person’s wellbeing.

Right now, I am making a list of seven people I will call over the next week, will you join me?

Sometimes it is just a simple word, or just the fact that you cared enough to call, that can make an enormous difference.

So, let’s start reconnecting, because this is a simple, yet powerful way that we can all be in this together.

Have a great week.
