Send us a textGrowth mindset? Oversold. It's not the magic bullet schools think it is. Telling teachers and students to “just believe in improvement” without addressing what's blocking them is like throwing seeds on dry, compacted soil and expecting a lush garden—without loosening the ground, adding nutrients, or ensuring there's water, those seeds don't stand a chance.Becca reveals five Catalyst Mindsets™ —Value, Ownership, Belonging, Success, and Growth—that actually move people from burnout to engagement and from passive compliance to real action.Value Mindset: If it doesn't matter to me, I'm not investing energy. Connect initiatives to personal goals, or watch engagement stay surface-level.Ownership Mindset: Stop waiting for someone else to fix it. Agency, accountability, and integrity drive real change.Belonging Mindset: If I don't feel like I belong, I'm not taking risks. Schools must create real psychological safety, not just “niceness.”Success Mindset: If I don't believe I can succeed, I won't even try. Coaching must reinforce small wins and self-efficacy to build real confidence.Growth Mindset: It's a continuum, not a checkbox. Where someone falls on that continuum matters more than whether they “have” a growth mindset.Coaches and Leaders: Your Challenge Identify Resistance—Which mindset is missing?Make Change Manageable—Break it down into small wins that build confidence.Stop Asking About Growth Mindset—Ask where someone is on the continuum and coach them through the messy middle.Growth mindset alone won't move the needle. Change happens when we address the right mindsets, in the right way, at the right time.Want more info?

Marcia is especially passionate about helping women receive funding from angel investing. We will show why it's more than just financial backing—it's a catalyst for meaningful change.

In this episode we had the great fun of having two amazing guests, Stephen Kelner, President & Tiffany West, Head of Programming at Ascent Leadership Networks. Collectively they bring decades of experience working with some of the world's largest organizations to drive change. As we discussed the challenges Catalyst leaders face, they shared two great insights into how aligning motivations can unlock transformation. To help reduce resistance to change, we need to align to the motivations and wins of the key stakeholders we need to bring along on the journey. To help maintain our own energy throughout the ups and downs of leading change, we need to continually check-in to make sure our personal motivations are aligned with the change capacity and capabilities of the organization. They shared the concept of zooming in on the daily activities that can give us energy as we get stuff done and have that sense of accomplishment with zooming out to evaluate if we are still aligned to the type, breadth and vision of change we're being invited to create. Tiffany also shared two of her favorite Catalysts that have inspired her in different ways during her years at the World Economic Forum: Paul Polman, former CEO of Unilever for the work he did mainstreaming sustainability into the Fortune 100 world and Beth Comstock, former CMO at GE, for her work leading change by flexing outside-in and inside-out innovation. We couldn't agree more! Original music by ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Lynz Floren⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

In today's dynamic business environment, leadership confidence development is essential for guiding teams and driving organizational success. However, confidence alone is not enough to lead effectively—leaders must also build authentic trust with their teams. Trust and confidence are inseparable when fostering productive work environments and ensuring long-term success. In this part II Women's Leadership Success podcast interview with Lida Citroën, we will explore practical strategies for developing leadership confidence and building authentic leadership trust. Lida Citroën: Mastering the Art of Leadership Influence Lida Citroën is a personal branding and reputation management expert who helps executives, entrepreneurs, and thought leaders worldwide shape their public image and seize ideal opportunities. With a track record of guiding thousands of individuals across 30+ countries, Lida offers a transformative approach to personal positioning.   As a dynamic keynote speaker, Lida has captivated audiences through her TEDx Talk and Talks at Google.

Leaders who display confidence are better equipped to inspire others, make strategic decisions, and handle challenges with resilience. However, confidence doesn't just emerge overnight; it is built through intentional practices. 1. Self-awareness and Emotional Intelligence Self-awareness is key to understanding one's strengths and growth areas, directly impacting leadership confidence. Leaders who invest in emotional intelligence training can more easily navigate complex team dynamics, boosting their self-confidence. By developing a deeper understanding of one's emotions, one can regulate them and respond to situations with clarity and calm. 2. Continual Learning and Growth Leaders who actively seek to develop new skills and stay up to date with industry trends exude more confidence. By continuously challenging yourself through learning and development opportunities, you stay prepared for changing circumstances, reinforcing your leadership capabilities. 3. Mentorship and Feedback One of the best ways to grow as a leader is to seek mentorship and actively request feedback from peers and team members. By receiving constructive input and applying it, leaders can build confidence in their leadership style while improving performance. This two-way communication also helps build stronger relationships and mutual trust.   Building Authentic Leadership Trust While confidence is critical, building authentic leadership trust sustains long-term success. Trust makes teams follow your lead, invest in your vision, and commit to achieving collective goals. But trust cannot be forced; it must be earned. Consistency in Actions and Words To build trust, leaders must align their actions with their words. Consistency in decision-making, behavior, and communication ensures that team members know what to expect from you. This creates a sense of reliability, which is fundamental to establishing trust.   Transparency and Open Communication Honesty and transparency foster trust within teams. Leaders who are open about their goals, challenges, and expectations build stronger connections with their teams. This authentic communication shows that you value your employees' input and are committed to their growth and the organization's success.   Empathy and Active Listening Building authentic leadership trust requires empathy.

Members of the military are involved in problem-solving. It's at the heart of a successful mission.

Lida Citroën, Boomer, joins us to talk about her new book, The New Rules of Influence – How to Authentically Build Trust, Drive Change, and Make an Impact. Lida is a keynote speaker, author and executive coach empowering global executives, entrepreneurs, and thought leaders to manage how they're perceived and drive them towards ideal opportunities. She has helped thousands of individuals gain a fresh perspective on crafting a personal narrative that tells the right story to the right people about who they are. Her personal mission isn't just about perception—it's about profound transformation, guiding others to leave an indelible mark on the tapestry of human achievement.   Topics covered in the Episode: We matter Executive Presence and Influence Groups of Rules (why, who, how, where) Misalignment of values Brand and Influence Influencers & Social Media Here are three takeaways from the episode:   1.    Executive presence is about: Gravitas but that can't be well-defined, Image which is about how to dress the part, and Communication that are usually scripted messages. That doesn't necessarily lead to influence which is not manipulation or persuasion. This is why we need new rules. 2.    Lida divides the 10 rules into 4 groups. Courage is our “Why” and it's about being real. Credibility means being clear what we stand for. “Who” is now global and includes rules of being of service and inclusive. “How” is not about perfection but being consistent and that builds trust. “Where” is about visibility. 3.   Misalignment of our values can be part of the journey and gets us to where we are (Rule 3) We've all experienced this and we learn from them.

Written by Dean Croucher & Narrated by Gayle Crew. Well, it's official. The New Zealand economy is in recession.

A slowing economy and more business and household caution, with many organisations already looking to make cost savings in response.

A conversation with Scott Poynton, founder of the Forest Trust, now known as the Earthworm Foundation, about supply chains, environmental regeneration and addressing environmental scandals from the forests of rural Australia to his groundbreaking work with major corporations like Nestlé on no-deforestation commitments. Scott's experiences in Vietnam's Mekong Delta, Tasmania, and reforestation projects reveal the intricate balance between economic growth and environmental conservation. Do you remember a few years ago Greenpeace released a video with a kitkat chocolate with an orangutan' finger in it, which very clearly made the statement that much of the palm oil the Nestlé owned company were coming from deforested plots in Indonesia which were home to the orangutans? And before that, the scandal on teak garden furniture, which in the nineties suddenly a lot of European household had teak garden furniture on their balconies or on their terraces? A lot of that wood came from illegal logging in Cambodja smuggled over the borders by ex-RedKer and sold to furniture companies sin Vietnam.What do you do as a company when you are hit by a supply chain scandal like this? In both of these cases, the companies called Scott to help fix it. Not their public image, but the actual supply chain. Get traceability in, no deforestation rules and monitoring, social programmes, etc. Learn from the fascinating journey of this forester born in Australia who founded the Forest Trust. It's regeneration, both socially, economically, and environmentally at scale, and learn why he is so excited about biochar.---------------------------------------------------Join our Gumroad community, discover the tiers and benefits on www.gumroad.com/investinginregenag. Support our work:Share itGive a 5-star ratingBuy us a coffee… or a meal! www.Ko-fi.com/regenerativeagriculture----------------------------------------------------More about this episode on https://investinginregenerativeagriculture.com/scott-poynton.Find our video course on https://investinginregenerativeagriculture.com/course.----------------------------------------------------The above references an opinion and is for information and educational purposes only.
