Women International Day

A lot of postings last week on Women International Day #IWD2019.

Everyday, in many offices and meetings, it’s Women BIAS Day, where unconscious bias lead to these little sentences and situations, soo kindly meant and soo belittling for many women.

Any of these scenarios familiar to you? How can you help yourself?

For a Team to Work Smoothly, You Need 3 Things

Here is today’s HBR Management Tip of the day (subscribe here: https://lnkd.in/deKbMNW) :

For a Team to Work Smoothly, You Need 3 Things: (…)

•INTERNAL SELF-AWARENESS is about understanding how your values affect your decisions. To improve, consider how your emotions and assumptions in a situation lead you to act a certain way. Resist the urge to act until you understand what’s driving you.

•EXTERNAL SELF-AWARENESS is about understanding how your actions affect other people. To improve, pay attention to how your colleagues react to things, and ask yourself (or them) what could be behind their behavior.

•PERSONAL ACCOUNTABILITY helps you asses how you are contributing to a problem. To improve, accept that you probably share some blame for what’s going wrong. Use internal and external self-awareness to think carefully about how you may need to change.
