"The difference between ordinary and extraordinary is that little extra." - Jimmy Johnson

Let's talk Leadership! It's not about having a fancy title or corner office (although those can be cool perks). It's about inspiring others, guiding the way, and making a positive impact. But have you ever wondered what makes someone step up and become a leader?

The secret sauce? It's all about you. Yep, your one-of-a-kind personality, your values, and the things that make you tick. These things combine to create your identity, and that identity is the lighter fluid that gets your leadership fire roaring!

Maybe you're just starting out on your leadership journey. You might be that person who walks into a room and brightens it up with your infectious energy. Or perhaps you have a deep sense of fairness and can't stand to see someone left behind. These are your leadership superpowers, waiting to be unleashed (and usually you are blind to them)! Your vision might be about creating a team where everyone feels valued and heard, or building a project that brings people together.

Let's say you're facing some bumps on the road. Obstacles are inevitable, but some folks just have a knack for bouncing back. That's because their identity is built on resilience and problem-solving. They see challenges as opportunities to learn and grow, not reasons to throw in the towel. Their leadership vision might be about creating a team that's not afraid to tackle tough problems head-on, knowing they'll come out stronger on the other side.

Now, what if you're a leadership veteran ready for a new adventure? Maybe your identity is all about learning and constantly evolving. You're always up for a new challenge and aren't afraid to adapt your style. Your vision might have shifted from leading a team directly to empowering others to become leaders themselves. You see the potential in everyone and want to help them unlock their inner rockstar.

The point is, wherever you are on your leadership path, understanding your identity is key. It's the foundation on which you build your vision and the source of strength that will keep you going when things get tough.

The Identity Spark: A Client Story

Let me tell you about David (name changed to protect privacy). David came to me feeling stuck. He was a talented manager, but something was missing. He felt like he was just going through the motions, unsure of how to truly inspire and motivate his team.

Through our coaching sessions, David embarked on a journey of self-discovery. We explored his core values, his natural strengths, and the experiences that had shaped him. It was a powerful moment when David realized his identity was built on a deep desire to connect with people and help them reach their full potential.

This identity epiphany wasn't just a "feel-good" moment. It became the fuel that ignited David's leadership vision. He started focusing on creating a more collaborative and supportive team environment. He empowered his team members to take ownership of their projects and encouraged them to share their ideas openly.

The results were transformative. David's team became more engaged and productive. They tackled challenges with creativity and enthusiasm. And David himself? He rediscovered the joy of leadership and the fulfillment that comes from making a positive impact on others.
