Architecting Podcast Episode 159: Uplift Thinking (An Inclusive Leadership Model) - Interview with Jing Johnson

Are you still slogging though a practice model that doesn't work for you? My guest Jing Johnson shares how she built a successful business based on uplifting others and providing support.

1. Be receptive to your clients and how you can serve them- they notice how you make them feel
2. We stay stuck because we worked so hard to get where we are and pay our dues that we want the payoff. Instead, a bigger payoff can come from realizing that success can come in a different way.
3. Open yourself up to the ease and grace of going down a career path that feels good to you.
4. Be the example of the culture you want to have. Others are watching what you do, because it matters more than what you say.
5. Live your core values and highlight how your team is implementing them.
6. It's easy to have trust when things are going well, but it's more important to cultivate it when they are not by being a supportive leader.
7. Share stories to help your team prepare for difficult clients or situations. Communication empowers and transparency enlightens.
