\u201cFor leaders to take care of others, they must first take care of themselves\u201d<\/span><\/i> – unknown<\/span><\/p>\n

Leaders, you don\u2019t hear and acknowledge this enough: you possess so many admirable qualities and characteristics, but one that stands out, and which sets you apart from others, is your selflessness. It\u2019s your selflessness that enables you to put the needs of your team before own, and to act in the best interests of your people and company goals and objectives – always!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Most businesses would not survive if it weren\u2019t for their leaders. Few individuals would be mentally and emotionally equipped to lead groups of people through any and all circumstances and do so with a smile on their face.<\/span><\/p>\n

But while you are there to lead, offer support and encourage your people to remain strong and positive, you need to recognise that these are extraordinary times, and you\u2019re human too. Being the best leader you can be to your people is important to you, but being the best leader begins with taking care of you first. And yes this may go against all you know a great leader to be, but haven\u2019t you heard the saying \u2018you cannot pour from an empty cup?\u2019 That\u2019s exactly why you need to acknowledge just how much you\u2019ve been through too, and how important it is to fill your own cup every now an then.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Here are 5-self care tips that are sure to make you an even BETTER leader (if that\u2019s possible!)<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

1. Set boundaries<\/b><\/h2>\n

Everyone needs to <\/span>set boundaries<\/span><\/a>; no matter who you are or what your role. Even though, as a leader, you want to be available to your people at all times, and be their guide and support whenever they call on you (especially during times like these), it\u2019s in fact unhealthy to place expectations like these on yourself. It\u2019s important your team knows not to place these kinds of demands on you either. Yes, you are absolutely available to your people and are more than willing to guide and support, but make sure it\u2019s within reason and at a time that\u2019s best for you. This will ensure you avoid feeling depleted – there\u2019s a lot going on right now and there\u2019s many more problems than usual. Healthy boundaries in times as stressful as these are critical!\u00a0 Being too available to your people actually does them an injustice, because they\u2019re not learning to exercise their problem-solving skills nor learning how to take initiative. If you feel there\u2019s too much on your plate don\u2019t be afraid to delegate responsibilities or leave some things for a better time.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Types of boundaries and how to implement them<\/b><\/h3>\n

Emotional: <\/b>topics of conversation you\u2019d prefer not to be a part of (gossiping, emotional dumping, tattling on colleagues).<\/p>\n

E.g. \u201cI\u2019d prefer not to be a part of this discussion<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n

Material: <\/b>The treatment and use of possessions.<\/p>\n

E.g. \u201cMaterials used in this workshop can\u2019t be copied and reproduced.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n

Time\/energy: <\/b>Boundaries around time, punctuality, when to contact, favours etc.<\/p>\n

E.g. \u201cIf you\u2019re going to be late, please alert me in advance.\u201d<\/i><\/p>\n

Mental\/spiritual: <\/b>Freedom of thought and opinion.<\/p>\n

E.g. \u201cI respect you disagreeing with my opinion, and please don\u2019t force your own.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n

Physical: <\/b>unwanted physical touch or comments regarding appearance, gender, orientation or sexuality.<\/p>\n

E.g. \u201cI don\u2019t find comments like that funny or appropriate.\u201d<\/i><\/p>\n

2. Take a break<\/b><\/h2>\n

Take time for yourself to relax and rejuvenate – and no, not just on weekends. We\u2019re talking about closing your laptop and forgetting about your emails after the working day; and take your lunch breaks and even the leave that\u2019s owed to you! Taking time to calm your mind, move your body, explore your hobbies and enjoy quality time with family and friends will in fact make you a better leader. It\u2019s <\/span>during times of rest<\/span><\/a> that ideas come to the fore, and it\u2019s the only time our minds properly process complex situations. You\u2019ll find that by relaxing and switching off regularly you\u2019ll be better at problem solving and even more creative in your thinking.<\/span><\/p>\n

3. Talk to a professional<\/b><\/h2>\n

Talking to a professional<\/span><\/a> doesn\u2019t mean you\u2019re a failure, in fact it means the total opposite. It means you\u2019ve acknowledged just how much better you can be, as a person and as a leader, with a bit of guidance and someone to help you see different perspectives. It takes strength and humility to push back on the narrative that leaders are\/have to be invincible.You are human too, and recognising that you need to take care of yourself to be able to take care of others is the first step to becoming the best leader you can be. Leadership roles often demand you get caught up in the detail. But it’s important to see the bigger picture sometimes – whether it\u2019s work-related or personal. This way, you\u2019re able to make better decisions, solve problems effectively and efficiently and equips you with the fuel you need to lead extraordinarily.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

4. Create a healthy morning routine<\/b><\/h2>\n

A healthy morning routine is so important and yet so very underrated. It sets the tone for the rest of your day, and as a leader, especially, I\u2019m sure you favour productive, positive days. Starting off with some time to get your thoughts together, and beginning your day on a positive, peaceful note is key to taking on any challenges the day has in store. Most influential <\/span>leaders recommend morning meditations<\/span><\/a> or a run or walk to inhale the fresh morning air, clear the mind and move the body. Everyone\u2019s morning ritual is different, so you\u2019d have to discover what\u2019s best for you – but it\u2019s well worth it!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

5. Reflect<\/b><\/h2>\n

It helps to reflect on the ups and downs at the end of each day or week. This will help you to learn from each obstacle and celebrate each win. During demanding times it\u2019s so easy to just keep going without stopping to think about all that has happened during the day, week or month. Without reflecting, it\u2019s difficult to learn and make changes, but more importantly, it\u2019s difficult to recognise what <\/span>you<\/span><\/i> need – and remember your needs need to be met for you to give of your best to others.<\/span><\/p>\n
