The SALT team doing what we love and loving what we get to do.

Adding value to the Fiji TV News and Ops Team at their retreat in Nadi over the weekend discussing ways of working better as a team.

Our commitment is to create a fun engaging participant experience and we do that through using the tools available to us as members of the Maxwell Certified Leadership Team (MLCT)

Over the weekend we got to have some excellent engagement around the Leadership Game and also discussed ways to build stronger teams from The 17 Indisputable Laws of Teamwork.

Interested in building stronger teams? Reach out to us today.

In leadership, John C. Maxwell's timeless advice echoes with profound significance: 'Be open-minded and always take the high road.' These words encapsulate the essence of effective leadership, emphasising the virtues of openness, integrity, and ethical conduct.

Leadership demands a willingness to embrace new ideas, perspectives, and approaches. By cultivating an open mind, leaders create an environment conducive to innovation, collaboration, and continuous learning. They understand that diversity of thought breeds creativity and fosters resilience in the face of challenges.

Moreover, taking the high road in leadership is not merely a choice; it is a commitment to uphold principles of honesty, respect, and moral courage. It entails rising above petty conflicts, resisting the temptation of shortcuts, and adhering steadfastly to one's values, even in the face of adversity.

In today's complex and ever-changing landscape, the importance of open-mindedness and ethical leadership cannot be overstated. Leaders who embrace these principles not only inspire trust and loyalty but also set a positive example for others to follow. They create a culture of accountability and integrity, where individuals are empowered to act with integrity and pursue excellence in all endeavours.

By following Maxwell's sage advice, leaders can navigate challenges with grace, lead with authenticity, and leave a lasting legacy of positive impact. So, let us heed his words and strive to be open-minded, principled leaders who always choose the high road, guided by integrity and a commitment to excellence.

Embarking on the journey of leadership means embracing the inevitable clash between great spirits and mediocre minds. As Albert Einstein astutely observed, 'Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds.' This timeless wisdom speaks volumes about the challenges leaders face in their quest to innovate, inspire, and drive change.

Great leaders recognise that facing opposition is not a sign of weakness, but a testament to the strength of their vision and the magnitude of their ambitions. They understand that every roadblock presents an opportunity for growth and transformation. Instead of being deterred by naysayers, they harness their resilience and determination to forge ahead, undeterred by the noise of mediocrity.

So, the next time you encounter resistance on your leadership journey, remember the words of Einstein. Embrace the opposition as a sign that you are on the right path, and let it fuel your determination to lead with excellence. For it is through overcoming obstacles that true leadership shines brightest."

You can't please everyone, and that's totally okay 😊

The real question is: how do you handle criticism?

If you have time this week, listen to the 'Making Great Decisions' episode of John Maxwell's Leadership Podcast - it may help you answer the question.

🔗 The podcast can be found at www.johnmaxwellleadershippodcast.com

How do you handle criticism?

It's often difficult to distinguish whether someone has good or bad intentions so getting advice from a friend or mentor is always a good idea.

Here are a few tips from John C Maxwell about how to handle different forms of criticism.

🌏

How many different roles did you find yourself in this week?

🌻 Perhaps it ranged from being a team leader, parent, child, friend or logistics person. Regardless of what it was, many of us will find ourselves in various positions during our lives.

Instead of loving some and loathing others, the challenge lies in building your character up. So that regardless of what position you find yourself in, you act with integrity and do it well.

✨ We hope you go into the weekend and new week thinking - 'how do I make myself worthy of any position I am given'

Have a great weekend!

A timely book by John C Maxwell for a time when party politics is dividing nations.

Let’s band together and encourage leaders everywhere to take the high road.

Effective communication is the cornerstone of leadership.

At Salt, we believe in empowering leaders with the skills to communicate with clarity, compassion, and conviction.

As a leader it is important to have good communication skills.

Whether you speak in front of rooms full of people, or if you work with young people individually, it is key.

Now, there is also a difference between just speaking and relaying information, and connecting and communicating.

It is the connection through communication that matters.

Here are some tips to help you communicate better:

🔸 slow down to allow time for understanding
🔸 make good eye-contact to engage listeners
🔸 show positive body language so it shows you want to be there

Have you got any tips? Lets us know below!

When it comes to speaking as a leader, there are a few ways to make sure that you’re leading well whilst connecting with your people.

Keep an eye on our socials as we’ll be sharing tips from Roddy Galbraith, a Maxwell Method of Speaker Training Mentor.

What's your vibe? Ever had an encounter with someone and although they're saying one thing, you can sense that something else is going on? Human intuition means people will feel your attitude and hear your words.

To be a good, successful leader, you need to BELIEVE that you are a leader and that will project through the passion and determination of your speech ✨

Our Leadershift Mastermind sessions will not only benefit you at work but it will influence every part of your life. This participant learnt how to embrace change and work with it, rather than against it.

It’s not just about leading the way, you have to show others the way too. Like the African proverb says, if you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.

Don’t be afraid to serve those you lead. The ability to serve and humble yourself amongst those around you is a true character of leadership ✨
