As we come into this time of year of gift-giving, reflecting on the year past & celebrating with loved ones, I always love to use the power of the hive mind to find out what you're favorite things have been in 2023.

This can range from products, to learnings (books/podcasts/conferences), to experiences - whatever comes to mind when you pause to reflect on 2023 and the joys and gifts it has brought to your life.

I enjoy giving unique & memorable gifts and many of those have come from people in my life that have shared their favorite things!
Taking this conversation across all of my social media platforms because I would love your input!

I AM THANKFUL FOR....

This chalkboard door was in the kitchen of the home we raised our kids in for 18 years.

It held lots of messages through the years of 'Happy Birthday,' 'Good Luck,' and holiday wishes, but my favorite tradition was that every November 1st each of us would write 1 thing that we were grateful for on the door - and you couldn't repeat what someone else had already shared through the month.

Even when the kids went to college, they would text in the family group chat to share their gratitude for the day and we would write it on the door.

When our son-in-law came into the family, he would share his daily gratitude from his Marine base for us to include on the chalkboard.

We have since moved from this home and do not have the physical door to carry on this tradition, but still share our gratitude throughout the month.

A gratitude practice is one of the simplest shifts you can add to your daily routine that can create a transformative difference in your mindset and attitude.

Did you know that the way our brains are wired that we cannot be both grateful and anxious at the same time?

There is no better time than today - November 1st - to begin your own gratitude practice.

Share below 1 thing you are grateful today!

Thank you for the opportunity to spend the day with you guiding you through our STAR Index and helping you discover your superpowers! Your group was engaging and interactive with great questions and plans for next steps to live out the best version of you!

3 reasons why your development process is not having the results you’re seeking:

- It’s looked at as the “program of the month.”

- Growth and psychological safety are not being modeled from the top down.

- It’s a “training” program focused more on technical skills than soft skills.

Soft skills aren’t “soft,” they’re human.

They are skills that focus on who people are, as opposed to what they are trained in.

What have been some of the best human skills you’ve learned in your growth?

Encouragement is the catalyst that sparks growth and strengthens the fabric of our professional relationships. As leaders, let's recognize and celebrate others to create a culture of support and collaboration that propels us all forward. Who is someone in your professional network that you admire for their ability to uplift others? Tag them and let them know they are appreciated.

Each and every one of us possesses inherent value, with our own set of unique gifts and talents. We were designed for a purpose, and when we embrace our individuality we allow others to show up uniquely and authentically in their gifts, as well.

We value and respect each person that makes up the sum of the whole, each bringing their diverse thoughts and unique gifts to the table.

Everyone deserves the dignity to feel valued, seen, and heard.

At B23 Strategies, we use our resources and certifications to help you and your team unlock and discover your unique gifts and talents. How can we help your team discover their superpowers?

It is fundamental to personal and professional leadership and growth.

Listening goes beyond hearing words or crafting our response.

It's about truly understanding and connecting with others, whether in our personal or professional lives.

By listening with an open mind, without judgment, and with empathy, we show genuine care and respect for their experiences.

Paying attention to body language adds another layer of understanding, allowing us to grasp the unspoken emotions.

Asking good questions, rather than rushing to offer advice, encourages deeper reflection and conversation.

When you reflect on your conversations, how well are you listening? Do you remember to stay quiet a little longer, resist the urge to interject, and give others the space they need to express themselves fully?

We encourage you to practice these in your next conversation? Are there elements you would add in how to be a good listener?

In the workplace, leading with love is a game-changer. Let's break down the acronym LOVE to understand why it's crucial for effective leadership:

Listen: By actively listening to our team members, we create an environment where their ideas and concerns are valued. It builds trust, strengthens communication, and fosters a sense of belonging.

Observe: Taking the time to observe and understand our employees' unique strengths and perspectives allows us to leverage their talents effectively. It promotes inclusivity, encourages diverse thinking, and leads to innovative solutions.

Value: Recognizing and appreciating our team's contributions, skills, and efforts not only boosts morale but also creates a culture of appreciation. When employees feel valued, they are more motivated, engaged, and enthusiastic about their work.

Encourage: Providing encouragement and support to our team members empowers them to unleash their full potential. It fosters growth, builds confidence, and cultivates a collaborative and uplifting work environment.

By leading with love, we create a workplace culture that promotes teamwork, nurtures employee development, and inspires greatness. How do you incorporate LOVE into your leadership style? Share your thoughts below! 👇

We have had the opportunity to be with this team for the last year facilitating their journey learning about their leadership voices, individual and team strengths and their core motivations - all of which are represented here with their fun props! The level at which they embraced their growth and vulnerable open conversations with the goal to be their best as individuals and a team was both inspiring and a strong reminder of exactly why we are as passionate as we are about what we do! Thank you Cushman Wakefield Indy Multi-Family team - it has been a true honor to be on this journey with your team!

On we celebrate the women that have gone before us and the generation of women we are raising and serving. We celebrate the women we have been and the women we strive daily to become. We celebrate the ones on stages and platforms that we have the opportunity to learn from and the ones without the microphone teaching us through actions. Today we celebrate hope and a future worth dreaming toward.

.dewolf had the opportunity to be with the Rotary Club of Greenfield yesterday. What a phenomenal group of community leaders that are living out service above self!

02/15/2023

.dewolf and sat down together on Erick’s podcast this week to give you a glimpse into what it may be like to walk through a coaching session with as we unpack your Enneagram & Gallup Strengthsfinder results. Janelle& Erick talk about how they originally met and it just MAY have something to do with this photo! ❤️💚 Isn’t it funny to think about all of the people that come into our life’s and that we cross paths with that we never know how God may intend to use that connection down the road? Life IS relationships, friends. Lean in. Learn about yourself and discover how YOU can show up self-aware and open.

This quote makes me think of the question that asks himself everyday, and that hangs in our office for daily reflection: “Have I added value today?” As we come into this busy, end of year holiday craziness, allow yourself this daily reflection to keep the things that matter in focus.

Do you know what makes you unique with the gifts and talents you’ve been given? What are you doing to exercise and strengthen them?

One time company wide trainings are not going to be the key to shifting culture and impacting real change. Transformative change comes with intentional, actionable and ongoing shifts that show up on an everyday basis.
