Episode #38: Showing Up as Your Authentic Self - Is it Easier Said Than Done?
<p>“Authenticity” was named one of the buzzwords of the year for 2020. And it hasn’t stopped buzzing. You’re heard it before:</p> <ul> <li>“Be your authentic self.”</li> <li>“Bring your whole self to work.”</li> <li>“Dare to be you!”</li> </ul> <p>But what does that really mean? What does it <u>not</u> mean? And why does it matter?</p> <p>In this episode, we’re joined by <a href="https://leadershipunlocked.com/about/"><u>Renita Alexander</u></a>, a.k.a. The Leadership Locksmith, to explore the often blurry concept of being yourself at work while also maintaining your professionalism and privacy. What is the balance? Are there certain things we should consider before showing up as our whole selves at work?

Alexander is a retired U.S.Air Force Colonel with a passion for</p> <p>leadership.

What Does It Mean to Be “Professional?” - Episode 36
<p>What does it mean to be professional? There are so many different interpretations of what that entails. For some, it means being impeccably dressed and well-groomed. For others, professionalism means speaking eloquently, behaving in a particularly reserved way, or adhering to certain standards. But at its core, being professional is about much more than just appearances or behavior.</p> <p>Have we collectively projected ideas about the professionalism that may or may not have anything to do with what being professional actually means?</p> <p>KK Harris joins the podcast to talk about what organizations and individuals miss when they adopt outdated notions and norms of what professionals should look like. She says, “Just be your best you, the best version of yourself…we can influence change by being the best version of ourselves."</p> <p><a href="https://talking-talent.com/us/about/meet-the-team/kk-harris/"><u>KK Harris</u></a> is a highly skilled and sought-after business psychologist, executive coach, DEI (Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion) consultant, and mindset transformation expert with extensive experience in the public and private sectors.
