GROW is a great tool for setting your own goals or using with your team.  

G - Goal. Where do you want to be? What do you specifically want to achieve by when? 
R - Reality. What is your current reality? Where are you now?
O - Options. What are your options? What could you do? Brainstorm as many ideas as you can. Remember, this is not about what you ARE going to do, just what you COULD do. 
W - Will. Now you focus on what you WILL do. What will you do and when will you do it?

Keeping you on target ... :-)

So, what does she mean by that? I hear you ask. Has she finally lost the plot? Well, the answer to the last question may be debatable, but here's what I mean...

When the shit has hit the fan, the sky has actually fallen down, and the worst that can happen has happened – I want you to act like a duck! While under the surface you may be frantically paddling away, all that your team, clients or customers will see is a serene, calm duck gliding across the surface of the water!
 
They don't need to see your meltdown or breakdown. They don't need to hear or see how stressed you are. Be a duck. (Or a swan if you want to be more elegant!)

Keeping your emotions under control is one of the signs of a true leader. 
​
Keeping you amused!

Let's face it - none of us really enjoy having difficult conversations. They can be unpleasant and uncomfortable, which is why we often put them off until they cause an even bigger problem.

But remember Tip 74 - you deserve what you tolerate! As much as you may not want to have the 'difficult' conversation - it just has to be done. 

Last, but by no means least, is the C profile. Think accountant, engineer, inventor, and anything else that needs a high level of accuracy and attention to detail.

​How to spot them...
C profiles are usually very reserved and prefer their own company to crowds. Often classed as the least emotional of profiles, C's do not tend to talk much about their personal lives or to be bothered much about yours, so personal chit chat is discouraged. C's love research, detail and data, and ask lots of questions.

What Do They Do Best?

• Plan thoroughly before deciding to act.
