Congrats! You're an Authenticator.
What does this mean? Here’s your digest:
You are the Authenticator, which means you are a master of candor. Your strength lies in your ability to see next steps, take values-aligned action and mobilize others with clarity when they feel stuck around practicalities or operations. Your employees appreciate that they know where they stand with you at all times. They respect that you are clear on expectations and what they should prioritize. You clarify what needs to happen next and effortlessly share practical steps so they can meet expectations.
You probably don’t even realize these are all skills- but the truth is, lots of leaders struggle with being clear and direct, and it can impact their ability to create trust in the workplace. Your colleagues come to you because you are forthright and can offer them practical and clear next steps or guidelines.
Your strengths include being direct, efficient, helpful, clear, straightforward, consistent, strategic, and organized.
- You encourage others to be bold.
- You are the one in the meeting who says what everyone is thinking but doesn't know how to say it. You model for them the importance of honest and transparent communication.
- You support others in being clear and direct by asking others clarifying and objective questions. To you, transparency is common sense, and you will facilitate these conversations with ease.
- You support others in executing their vision. You can fill in any gaps by being concrete with clear action steps.
Ways you might unintentionally lose TRUST –
- Not centering emotions and processing emotional experiences during a work meeting (it feels cumbersome or messy).
- Not apologizing to an employee when they share they are upset or offended by something you did/said (especially difficult when you know you did nothing wrong, yet you need to acknowledge their feelings).
- Not talking about the working relationship between you and your employee (especially after a rupture), or not directly sharing what you appreciate about your employee beyond just their work.
- When an employee needs help with their motivation/inspiration, and you can't help but think, "Please just do your job."
