How much is too much when it comes to sharing about yourself?

We have been conditioned to think that sharing stories of our personal life as leaders depict weakness. A leader should command respect by carrying a straight face to the office, firmly enforcing their orders, and doesn't ever smile.

A leader to many people is the word "dictator."

The world is changing drastically, and this is affecting everything and everyone. Our previous conceptions of who a leader should be and what leadership entails don't hold much anymore these days.

People want to have someone they can relate to and trust. As a leader intending to express yourself, you could also have the problem of not knowing to what extent do you share your personal information when trying to relate with your colleagues and mentees.

Join me in this episode as I will share tips for becoming an effective leader by stepping into your visibility.
