Helping others through uncertain times

by | Everyday Leadership for Smart Women podcast, Leadership

In the absence of information, people make assumptions.

Stephanie Pollock

In these shorter episodes, I’ve been primarily focusing on how you can better navigate these challenging times. This is the idea of putting our own oxygen masks on first as we can’t give what we don’t have. 

Today, I’d like to shift focus and speak to how you can lead others through these times – whether they are co-workers, employees, clients, customers, contractors or even your family members. 

We’re all carrying a lot right now, and as uncertainty runs high, it can be easy to find yourself with intrapersonal challenges because everyone is on alert. 

This has been a source of many conversations with clients over the past few weeks. As they try to manage their own feelings and actions as a result of the pandemic, they’re also very mindful of the leadership responsibility they have to the people they lead. 

So while this list is hardly exhaustive, let me take a moment to share five ways to lead your people through uncertain times.

Enjoy the episode.
