#19 - How vulnerability helps us become better leaders - Nena Martinez

As Go-getters, it is important for us to sustainably growing and contributing, which means, to grow and contribute feeling healthy and fulfilled in the journey, over a long period of time.

Not only it is important for us as individuals, it is equally important for the people around us, especially to the ones that we lead or manage. You can only lead deeply through showing others what you want them to do.

Being YOU while doing so, being authentic as who you truly are, is a foundation for being a good leader.

Having experienced a burnout at the end of 2008, I learnt the hard way that vulnerability is not a weakness. In fact, it is the very thing that helps me to become a better leader and a more fulfilled person.

How so?

Join me in the 2nd part of the deep dive conversation I had with Nena Martinez about vulnerability in the workplace. We discussed real examples on how to integrate it in becoming the next version of ourselves as a leader.

Nena Martinez is the first Latin America’s Certified Daring Way Facilitator Case Consultant and a Public Speaker. She trained with Dr. Brené Brown to help herself and others understand their shame triggers, the power of being vulnerable, and living a compassionate and courageous life. She facilitates workshops, consultations, and individual sessions where she explores themes like vulnerability, courage, compassion, shame, values, conscious parenting etc.

She created "Setratadenosotros" in order to share information that she finds inspiring and helpful in her personal life.

Enjoy!
