An outcome-driven Strategist, sleeves rolled up leader driving business growth and empowering teams to outperform their own expectations with agility. | MAICD
Today is the 40 year anniversary of Self Determination for one of Australia's most beautiful territories; Cocos Keeling Islands. https://shire.cc/en/. Self Determination Day is a powerful symbol of their commitment to self-governance and the pursuit of equal rights. Self-determination is a psychology science theory identifying autonomy, relatedness and competence as the pillars of individual identity in social environments. In the work world it was popularised by Dan Pink and embraced by agile practitioners as autonomy, mastery and purpose. The shift towards individualism in its professional use is missing a crucially important ecosystem success factor - we don't exist, nor work alone. Relatedness extends to our relationship with our organisations purpose, and our own goals as much as, if not more importantly, to our team members, our leaders, and our customers. With a choice, the Cocos Keeling Islands overwhelmingly chose to be related to the Australian Nation. Cultivating a nurturing network in your professional nation is just as important. In the workplace, how are you developing worthy relationships? Do you have a unique way of being related to others you have to work with, but may not choose in your personal life? #teamagility #selfdetermination https://lnkd.in/gc3fTMJ8

Entrepreneur & Managing Attorney at Layde & Parra| Immigration Attorney & Advocate | 2% of Latina attorneys across US | Champion/Advocate for DEIB| 1st. Gen. Latina | Daughter of Immigrant Parents
It’s time to stop hiding our Latinidad and bring it boldly into every space we occupy. No more code-switching to make others comfortable. We shouldn’t have to conform to outdated expectations of success. Let’s break free from the idea that we must leave our Latinidad at the door to be accepted. Last night, I watched The Long Game on Netflix—a powerful story about five young Mexican-American caddies who dared to challenge the status quo by learning to play golf and compete in tournaments. In an era when Mexican-Americans were only seen as caddies, their journey was groundbreaking. The film also sheds light on a Mexican-American superintendent who, despite his military service and passion for golf, faced enormous barriers to being accepted into a prestigious golf club because of the color of his skin. A theme that struck me was the “survival rules” the coach taught these young men. He believed that to be taken seriously, they had to assimilate—follow unwritten rules just to be allowed in those spaces. That was in 1955, but as I watched, I realized how much this struggle still resonates today. Latinos are often expected to check certain boxes to gain respect in professional spaces, sometimes at the cost of suppressing our true selves. A Coqual study found that 40% of Hispanic and Latino/a professionals still feel pressured to cover up aspects of who they are to advance in their careers. While we’ve made progress in increasing Latino representation in leadership, there’s still a long way to go. Companies miss out on the unique values, passion, creativity, and talent we bring when we’re allowed to thrive as our authentic selves. I’m deeply proud of the generations before me who fought for the opportunities I have today. I’m also inspired by my generation’s courage in challenging organizations that stifle our authenticity. Together, we’re ensuring that future generations won’t have to leave their Latinidad at the door. #proudofbeingmexicanamerican #proudofmyroots #latinosinleadership #mylatinidadisimportant #latinosinleadership

Happy President's Day, everyone! 🇺🇸 While many of us are enjoying a well-deserved break from work, let's not forget the legacy of the leaders who shaped this nation with their vision, courage, and perseverance. They faced many challenges and obstacles, but they never gave up on their dreams and goals. They inspired generations of Americans to pursue excellence and innovation in every field of endeavor. As we celebrate this holiday, let's also reflect on our own personal and professional journeys. What are we passionate about? What are we working towards? What are we grateful for? How can we make a positive impact in our communities and beyond? Whether you are relaxing, learning, or hustling today, remember that you have the potential to achieve greatness and make a difference in the world. You are not alone in this journey. You have the support of your network, your mentors, and your role models. You have the example of the presidents who came before you and the ones who will come after you. So, enjoy this day, but don't let it go to waste. Use it as an opportunity to recharge, reflect, and recommit to your vision. You have what it takes to be a leader in your own right. You have what it takes to be a president in your own way. 💯

Those who have not done it, may often tell you that its not realistic. That its not secure. They may remind you that you have a stable job with a secure income. Whether you are happy doing it, or not. They will ask “why would you want to risk it all?” Most often those people, be them friends or family members likely have never tried to do something other than the job they hate. Or they tried and failed, not necessarily from trying, but NOT trying. Maybe they went through a tough time, and were overcome with self doubt and convinced themselves they made a mistake. I dont want to see that. I dont know about you, but i love to see somebody go after their dreams or goals and succeed through perseverance. Even if i have not achieved the success that i would like to have. We should cheer on those we know. The more examples we see of people striving for success by taking a different path without knowing if it is going to work, should be inspiring. We are shown that it is possible to change your life and your career. We can be happy in what we do for a living. We should pursue opportunities that will bring us joy, along with good pay. It doesnt have to be just showing up to a “secure” job, toiling 8-9 hours a day, and not being fulfilled from the work. We deserve happiness, fulfillment and enough money to live well. The people who have found the success you search for will tell you on podcasts and Youtube how they did it. They will often dispell myths taught to us by society and the educational system. They will give you a blueprint to show how they achieved. They are not hiding the secret to success for themselves. Many of them want to see others achieve. As should we. Especially if we arent there yet.

Why are we bad at celebrating? Celebrating has become a lost art. Often, we're immediately moving onto the next goal, achievement, or project without pausing to reflect on how far we've come. This never-ending cycle can leave us anxious, depressed, and burnt out. Taking the time to celebrate is imperative to fostering a mindset of gratitude in all things. Celebrating achievements fuels motivation and creates a healthier mindset for everyone. Hear more about how to celebrate well ➡️ https://lnkd.in/gg3tXHHH
