Imagine the difference when we ask: โWhoโs handling this work?โversus โWhoโs built for this?โ
Many meetings drain energy because they overfocus on tasks. Adding strengths conversations into such meetings shift the energy positively because they shift the focus towards people.
Instead of saying, โGood work on the deck. Letโs now quickly prepare for the presentationโ, we ask, โI saw your energy and enthusiasm when you were putting the deck together. What about doing slides make you so happy? How can we partner together?โ
The difference? One feels like a to-do list. The other feels like unlocking superpowers. My work as a #Teamcoach is helping teams redefine their habits.
In this most recent #CliftonStrengths session, we didnโt discuss workโwe discovered flow. When members of the team explore what they see in each other and in themselves, they stop reinforcing the negative stories about each other.
They start being curious about what each other cares for at work and what makes each other feel like they are thriving.
The energy shifts. The body relaxes. The smiles appear.
Collaboration and partnership becomes a natural outcome.
My own reflection after the team coaching:
There was a deeper realization that I aim to integrate emotional work with strengths. Sometimes itโs peace-making work by diffusing existing conflicts. Other times, itโs amplifying hope for teams that feel burdened. My superpower is injecting clarity into a teamโs emotional context and generating the required shift. I love seeing teams come alive and this session gave me evidence of what I can generate in terms of the outcome! #Grateful
