Here's how you can enhance your leadership presence as an executive.

Confidence comes from authenticity. It is difficult to exude confidence when you are not true to yourself. Reflect on what is important to you and stand strong for it. Not to be trite but if you stand for anything then you’ll fall for everything.

Embrace continuous learning to stay ahead. The business landscape is constantly evolving, and as an executive, it's crucial to keep up with new trends, technologies, and methodologies. Engage in professional development opportunities, seek feedback from peers and mentors, and be open to new ideas and perspectives. Additionally, prioritize emotional intelligence; understanding and managing your emotions, as well as empathizing with others, will enhance your leadership effectiveness and help you build stronger, more productive teams.

Being a Supervisor does not mean you are higher than your collegues or your staff. You need to have an open office approach, have weekly and monthly meetings. Once a month have a meeting whereby your staff get to air their opinions or provide ideas to make the working environment more exciting to work in but on a less stress environment. Offer courses that will assist staff upskill in their field. Give incentives to staff so they feel appreciated.

First appearances remain paramount! Early in my career, I was advised to dress for the job I wanted not the one I was being interviewed. Heeding this has paid dividends. Continue to dress for the job you desire once hired leads you to your goal. Mindset becomes habits and habits become character. Taking the time to present your best appearance provides opportunities for conversations that build relationships. Be approachable and be prepared.

* ética laboral: Sé un modelo de comportamiento ético y profesional. * Compromiso: Demuestra dedicación y responsabilidad hacia tus responsabilidades y metas. * Desarrollo personal: Invierte en tu propio crecimiento y aprendizaje continuo.

Leading by example means being present while engaging your emotional intelligence. Strong leaders know when to lead and when to follow. Often the best leaders are the ones mentoring the next leader. Helping others find and define their leadership style is the true definition of a leader.

Knowing the names of everyone who makes your position function, including the cleaners, saying thank you, and showing respect and gratitude.

As I leader and one who has leaders I don't believe it is possible to actually lead without connecting with ones self, the team, and ones own leaders. Can you be a boss without connecting? Absolutely. But being a boss isn't necessarily leading nor is leading necessarily being a the boss. When we understand where people are coming from AND realize that every experience they have had prior to working with us comes with them it allows for leaders to paint the vision with THEIR perspective in mind. And that creates buy in to a mutual understanding of what it will take to move the person forward as well as the team. And you know what else happens? You grow future leaders.

* Networking: Construye y mantiene relaciones significativas dentro y fuera de la organización. * Empatía: Demuestra interés genuino por las personas y sus necesidades. * Mentoría: Apoya y guía a otros en su desarrollo profesional y personal.

Building relationships provides opportunities. To build productive relationships, be intentional while being present. You can look into the future but to get there you must contribute to the current needs. Share your knowledge and expertise while seeking others input. There is always room for improvement. Remain open to influence while aware of goal. Teamwork improves productivity, so engage your connections using their strengths to build stronger relationships and improve outcomes.
