High achievers are typically ambitious individuals who strive for excellence in their careers. Yet, this relentless drive can sometimes push them towards burnout. Are you fully realising your leadership potential, or is the weight of responsibility overwhelming? Are you overwhelmed by a multitude of responsibilities, neglecting your own needs? By mastering the art of delegation, you could elevate your team's performance while dedicating yourself to more exciting and meaningful work.

Great leadership is rooted in the skillful use of emotional intelligence. Emotional intelligence s about working with people, interacting with them, motivating them and managing conflict (including with the self). These are some of the elements of people management, regardless of formal leadership titles (supervisor, manager, director etc.) or informal leadership titles (coordinator, administrator, QA etc.).

"What a lovely and unusual name?”

“Where are you from?"

Questions like these, though innocent in intent, could have serious consequences during interviews. Such well-meaning inquiries might unexpectedly result in a visit to the Workplace Relations Commission (Labour court)

Do you identify more as a leader or a manager? How do those around you perceive your role—do they see you as a leader or a manager? Exploring the difference between the two could be pivotal in shaping your approach to success.
