Ten Ways The Visibility Project Contributes to Women's Leadership Skills

1.

360-Degree Feedback
Few of us can see ourselves as we really are. We have even less insight into how we are seen by others. This visibility gap can cause unintended conflicts and make us ineffectual in unconscious ways. Closing this visibility gap with coaching means benefiting from your strengths and managing your weaknesses. The result is getting more done with abundant good will in far less time.

 
2.

Eliciting Greatness
Are you secretly unsure as to what's great about you? A visibility coach is a trusted adviser who helps you define your authentic style. You don't have to settle for tunnel vision when it comes to sighting your unique competitive advantage. And don't be shortsighted when it comes to making the most of your assets and even your quirks.

 
3.

Vision Crafting
A dynamic, clear vision can bring you closer to a desired future and build your legacy, while a static or blurred vision can sabotage all your hard work. Visibility coaching asks you to examine your values, clarify your aspirations, and identify future trends. The result is that you can think and act more effectively, serving both short and long-term goals.

 
4. Aligning Strategy with Vision
Even the clearest sense of purpose can be thwarted by a working strategy that is not carefully aligned with its guiding vision. Visibility coaching shows you how to check your vision-action alignment and maximize deliverables every day.
 
5. Team Building
Conflict is both costly and stressful. How do you get colleagues to engage with loyalty and enthusiasm? How do you make sure co-workers and employees feel validated and motivated? An important component of upgrading your own visibility is learning to see and acknowledge the contribution of others. Good team building releases the power of the whole organization and, deservedly, makes you look very good.
 
6.

Life Balance
You may be getting gold stars at work, but are you winning at your life? Do you know how to get your personal needs met without compromising your professional performance? Are you able to establish boundaries that insure your health, happiness and productivity? Visibility coaching gives you a personal success formula that starts with 20/20 self-seeing and then makes sure you don't drop any of the balls you're juggling, even (or especially) behind the scenes.

 
7. Overcoming Gender Bias
Certain gender-biased assumptions often limit the leadership potential of women. How can women respond to the distorted perceptions with which they are sometimes viewed? Visibility coaching addresses that issue much as it designs better work environments and maximizes the advantages of women's leadership style.
 
8. Change Management
Change can be threatening. Most people resist and resent it, even though it is part of our lives. A coach can help leadership prepare employees, colleagues and the public for the inevitable, while keeping you visibly ahead of the curve.
 
9. Sounding Board
You may simply not wish to be visible during difficult times. A pressured executive often needs someone to talk to far from prying eyes. Coaches are trained listeners without allegiance to any one outcome, providing you with a safe, confidential space to talk over problems and arrive at new perspectives and solutions.
 
10. Delegation and Mentoring
The continuity and renewal of an organization depends upon the cultivation of new leadership. Visibility coaching can help today's leaders leverage the art of delegation so that projects are more efficiently managed and executives have more time to concentrate on the big picture. When guided by a coach, delegation becomes the first step in identifying and promoting the next generation of leaders. It is a vital step that ensures your visible legacy will live on.
