    My interpretation of the topics. Good talk:
    7 Great techniques to practice as a servant leader:
    Cork - pause/stop and listen to respond not react.
    Puzzle Piece - value individuality and create a space where people feel they can be their true selves.
    Goal Post - good leaders give effective goal posts. Effective communication to produce great results. Servant leaders provide the goals, but empower the teams to figure out how to achieve them.
    Ladder - ladder of assumptions - seek to understand. We all have our perspective, seek to understand that of others.
    Penny - there are always 2 sides to every coin - your perspective only shows one side - flip the coin and ask great questions.
    Bucket - Praise and acknowledgement - fill up the buckets of others. Be specific with praise & acknowledgement.
    Jar - transparent - create a safe environment by not being defensive so others feel empowered to provide feedback and confidently vulnerable.
    Bonus: everybody wins when a leader gets better.

    Thanks for this enriching topic on female servant leadership. Her aim was to empower her team by being a role model, by being grateful, by staying humble, asking the right questions, and by framing her perceptions in a manner that brings out the best among her team members. Yey! Cheering you on from the Philippines.

    At 16:06 the jar has a mirror in it. She discusses the cork, puzzle piece, bucket, ladder, goalpost, and jar (6 items). The mirror is never discussed. Anyone know what that is for?

      I use the mirror (best self mirror, honesty mirror and blind spot mirror) all the time to grow in self awareness as I am huge student of emotional intelligence, and the truth is I had a hard time deciding on what items to talk about! 😂 thanks for catching that!

    Just to clarify as I can see how it might be confusing. The servant leadership symbols/items are:
    1. Cork
    2. Puzzle piece
    3. Goal post
    4. Ladder
    5. Penny
    6. Bucket
    7. Jar
    Thank you so much for watching, practicing and sharing these concepts!
