Your Vibe Matters
The
vibe you create when you walk into a room matters. You can either
bring positive energy, negative energy, or no energy at all. You can make people feel good about themselves and the work they are doing OR make them feel anxious, inadequate, and afraid. Leaders often have little perception of the
emotional wake they leave behind following their interactions (or lack thereof). People will naturally look up to you and pay close attention to your
moods, mannerisms, and overall attitude. They believe they know who is in your favor and guess who is not, and they are constantly trying to figure out where they stand in this regard. One of a leader’s primary responsibilities is to
create an environment where people thrive and excellent work gets done. Never forget that you are always on stage and have an audience.
You set the tone and vibe, and everything else follows your lead.
