I'm naturally fun and upbeat, and I excel at taking charge in serious situations. However, I've noticed that when I show my playful side, some people tend to take me less seriously. Is there a way to balance lightheardness with leadership?

I stopped worrying about my humor in a leadership context a long time ago. Being authentic is way more important. As long as I consistently produce, my team respects me, and my humor becomes a natural part of our dynamic.

Be authentically you and stop worrying about others. You got to where you are at because you are strong, capable and smart.

I recently read Mel Robbins “The Let Them Theory” —— well…. The audio book. It’s changed my life. I highly recommend it to all leaders!! It changes your perception about what others think, giving YOU the power!
