Be a leader who empowers others

-


Do people often ask you, what they should be doing?

It's not that they don't know the answer to that question. It's just that they don't want to take responsibility for the outcome.

Life becomes pretty simple when you start taking responsibility for your thinking and actions, but the most difficult thing is to take responsibility.

You might have a lot of people coming to you to know the answers to their life's problems. If you think they are coming to you because you may help them as you have some experience or knowledge, maybe you are right. 

You may know a lot of things better than others.And At times, we need guidance as well, since we are not able to look at the problem and solution clearly because of our attachment to the outcome.

But if you want to help someone never spoon-feed the answer else that person will become dependent upon you.

However, you can help them by giving them a different perspective, discuss their problems and possible solutions but don't offer them an answer.
          People are looking for an answer, as I shared that they are scared of taking responsibility for the outcome. Still, no matter how many times they ask you what they should do, never answer. Instead, help them come with possible solutions and empower them to take that solution. 

A great leader isn't the one who makes people dependent upon them but empower others in such a way to make them self dependent.

Remember Live and Let Live.

Communicate to include not exclude

  A few days ago, I had a conversation with an acquaintance named Jyoti, who relocated to Pune several months ago following her marriage as her spouse found work here. During our conversation, she expressed her love for working in the city, but there was one aspect that troubled her — she had been unable to make friends at her office, where she worked at a private company. My curiosity got the better of me, and I wanted to understand the reason Jyoti shared that everyone in her team is Maharashtrian, and during their breaks, they converse in the regional language. She also wishes to join in and make friends, but the language barrier hinders her. Despite her colleagues suggesting, “You should learn the language if you want to stay here,” she acknowledges that it will take some time. People move to different states and, sometimes, countries for various reasons such as job opportunities, education, family changes, climate preferences, or caring for ageing parents. It’s not realistic to ex

"Am I looking at the same 15-year-old👩 who was so connected and enthusiastic to be with me when she was 5👩‍👧?  Now, she prefers to lock🔒 herself in her room for the whole day. I wonder🫤 to myself..." Asked a participant in the training session on Proactive Parenting for a corporate in Della Resort, Lonavala. As parents, we embark on a remarkable journey of nurturing and guiding our children through the ups and downs of life.  From those first tentative steps to their first day at school, we stand as their pillars💝 of support. However, as the years pass and our children grow into independent individuals, a complex emotion😑 can begin to emerge - parental disconnection. This bittersweet phenomenon is a natural part of the parenting process, yet it often catches us off guard.  Why does it happen?  As our children evolve into their own personalities, interests, and experiences, they naturally seek more autonomy and space.  This gradual detachment can lead to a sense of dist

  "Mumma, why don't you join our school as a teacher?" This is a constant request from both of my children who never miss an opportunity to remind me that if I enjoy teaching, why not teach kids in their school? Always with a smile, I have to say, "No, dear, I teach adults." So, what is the difference? The difference lies in the style in which adults learn. Anyways, that brings me to the topic of Adult Learning Principles. Adult learning principles are guidelines and theories that inform how educators should design and facilitate learning experiences for adult learners. These principles take into account the unique characteristics and needs of adult learners and help create more effective and engaging educational experiences. Here are some key adult learning principles: Self-Directed Learning: Adults prefer to take responsibility for their own learning. They want to set their own goals and objectives, make choices about what and how they learn, and assess their
