Confidence

What is #confidence ? You can tell whether a person is confident or not when you see their body language, when you hear them talk, and when you notice how well they are listening. People with vast knowledge aren't necessarily confident. As a matter of fact, ~70% C-level executives have #impostersyndrome .

#confidence is a #belief that you can or that you can learn.

I had the honor sharing the stage with my two great friends Huimin Xiong, Ph.D. and Joy Zhao, Ph.D, PCC. We shared the three areas of confidence (TRI) - Technical, Relational, Influential, with the Alliance for Impact Inc. community.
✅ Technical: are you confident that you have the skills to do the work and also learning for the future?
✅ Relational: Do you have the #communication skill and #emotionalintelligence to interact with people and build strong relationships?
✅ Influential: Do you have the ability to influence change?

Having more confidence requires #courage and #commitment.
One needs to have the courage to do the things that are uncomfortable and scary, and the commitment to do those (small) things again and again.
