We have a couple spots remaining in our Leadership Accelerator for Women Cohort beginning in January 2022. 📆
Watch as Jenifer Sanders and our partner Salima Hemani share information about what this program will include! 🙌🏻
Leadership comes in all shapes and sizes. There is no "one size fits all" approach when it comes to being a leader.
With that said, there are common traits that show up in what we often consider an "inclusive leader" - someone who shows up consistently, as their full and complete self, and makes those around them better. 💪🏼
We asked a recent workshop what they believe an inclusive leader is, and these responses are highlighted below.
Which do you agree with? What is missing? 🤔

As part of our planning for the Leadership Accelerator for Women Program, we asked a group of female leaders what they are most worried about in their return to the office.
We heard a wide range of responses including:
Health ❤️
Ability 💪🏼
Family 👨👩👧👦
Judgement 😤
And More!
What are you most worried about in your return to the office? 🤔
In partnership with Salima Hemani and SZH Consulting, we are so excited to launch the Leadership Accelerator for Women in January 2022.
In this highly inclusive and interactive program, each participant will learn how to develop her unique voice, navigate long-standing, traditional barriers, and build executive presence all while exploring synergies and building a network which focuses on uplifting women in leadership.

We are currently rolling out a new tool called the DRiV! Let us try to keep our excitement short and share 5 benefits of this new tool:
1. Enhanced employee communication – understanding what drives you and what drives others helps us to have better conversations. 🤝
2. Leveraging your energy – knowing the why behind your behavior lets you leverage natural energy vs having to manufacture it. 🔋
3. Aligning our actions to values - Having a razor sharp focus on your vision helps you to recognize projects that can bring you greater joy and fulfillment. 😃
4. Career Exploration – The DRiV helps you identify a role where you know you will be able to do the things you love. 🧠
5. WHEN – You will inevitably have to do things that drain you. How can you be strategic about WHEN in your schedule that you do them. ⏱
This tool is amazing and I'd love to share more about it. You can join us for a #FREE webinar on Monday, May 10th to learn more. The link to register is in the comments! https://oka-online.com/increasing-your-leadership-impact/
Join us on Monday, May 10th at 1 pm ET for a #FREE webinar on "Increasing Your Leadership Impact."
In this fast-paced, free webinar, get an interactive introduction to the new DRiV assessment and a few ways in which this innovative tool can help all current or aspiring leaders increase the impact they have on the people and organizations around them. Directly taking on the DRiV’s Impact Factor, this workshop will explore #Charisma, Commercial Focus, #Courage, Caution, and #Deliberation, and how the these actions can drive and/or drain us—and of course, what we do about these drivers from there.

MBTI Intro
MBTI - we've all heard of it but are you familiar with what the different elements actually represent? 🤷🏻♂️
People often think that what their type is 100% defines them. FALSE.
Depending on the situation, we can switch between types. Remember, these are just preferences. 👍🏻
This animation shows what the MBTI stands for.
What's your type? 🤔

DRiV Reason #5
The number 5 reason we're excited about The #DRiV here at OKA is because it helps individuals understand #WHEN they should do things.
One of my favorite books in the leadership development space is "When" by Daniel Pink. This book explains the importance of when we do things throughout our day.
We all inevitably have to do things that drain us. How can we be strategic about WHEN in our schedule that we do them. Can we schedule those draining things early in the morning when we are at our freshest? For example, #compliance is a drainer for me, but it is something that I need to do in my role. Therefore, I have started to be intentional in my day about when I do things related to the compliance definition of "strictly adhering to and enforcing existing rules, guidelines, and processes."

DRiV Reason #4
The Number 4 reason we're excited about The DRiV here at OKA (Otto Kroeger Associates) is because it helps individuals with career fit/exploration.
The #DRiV helps individuals identify a role where they know they will be able to do things that really drive them. Understanding what drives us and drains us helps us identify the ideal career fit.
#DRiV #drivers #drainers #motives #values #motivation #HR #assessments
DRiV Reason #3
The number 3 reason we're excited about our newest tool, The #DRiV, is because it helps us align our actions to values.
Having a razor sharp focus on your vision helps you to recognize projects that can bring you greater joy and fulfillment, because you get to align your values, strengths, and vision with activities that have meaning to you.
