How To Find Your Voice At Work

August 24, 20241 min read

According to a report, 6 in 10 people feel like they don’t belong in their workplace.

I've come across people who shunned their voice due to:

- Fear of the repercussions of speaking out
- Some believe their opinions aren't as valuable
- Others feel like they don't have the confidence or skills to express themselves

This only quells your true potential along with all those brilliant ideas you have.

Instead, here are some underestimated ways you can get heard and noticed:

(🎖️) Work on your leadership presence. When you carry yourself with authority, people not only listen, but lean in!

(✨) Take time to reflect on your zone of brilliance. What is it that makes you uniquely YOU? The better you know yourself, the more interesting you become.

(🚧) You thrive at work once you accept that setting boundaries isn't shutting off people, but highlighting what you stand for. Respect yourself, and watch that respect come right back at you.

(🤝) If you get the chills before high-priority meetings, start touching base with key players beforehand to gain buy-in.

(🧠) Last but not least,

Believe you’re worth listening to and others will follow suit.

Every idea unheard is an opportunity missed.

So don't let silence dilute your impact!

Why just be a part of the conversation, when you can lead it? 💛
