It’s a call to accept yourself for the way you are, not just the parts that you like, but the parts that are difficult. To counter self-love, there's an important piece we often don't think about: self-doubt. Know what it looks like. There is an inherent power in speaking about self-doubt. Sometimes people can’t work because they get drowned out by thoughts of self-doubt, but remember that the pursuit of perfection is completely inauthentic--everyone has different things to doubt and are able to challenge them in different ways, so do what works for you. There's no right way, and no path to perfect.

3 Ways Highly Successful People Handle Self-Doubt

Helping an Employee Overcome Their Self-Doubt

As a manager, it's important for you, your managee, and the work itself that you be entirely honest. Tough conversations often require a written list of topics to use as a check-list. It'll help you keep on track, get it all out, and frame the feedback in an actionable way.

Radical Candor, by Kim Scott

The one word that comes to mind is “vulnerability”. There will be times during your career where things are overwhelming and difficult - emotionally, mentally and physically (e.g., family crisis, lots of work that needs to get out the door, etc). And it’s ok to let your team members know what’s going on and get support. And yes, it is ok to also say that you just can’t come into work today. I bring that “vulnerability” to work every day, it’s my super power. It provides a safe space for other people to come to work and bring their full selves - if you are going through something difficult and then you come to work and shut it off, you aren’t really “showing up”. And “showing up” allows you to tap into areas you didn’t even know existed.

The Best Leaders Are Vulnerable

Create a dialog with mutual purpose by 1. checking yourself, 2. gathering facts instead of judgement, and 3. ending the conversation with an open-ended question.

Taking the bias out of meetings

Your personal brand needs a plan, just like a professional brand. You can't leave it up to chance. You need to identify what you would like to be known for and find ways to shore up your experience and close any gaps.
