Ep55: What young corporate leaders MUST know.
In this episode, Mei Phing discusses how to gain respect as a young leader in the corporate world and shares three key tips: gain industry knowledge, conduct self-reflection and assessment, and pay attention to personal branding.
Key Highlights
💡 Gaining industry knowledge is crucial for young leaders to overcome the perception of lack of experience and gain respect in the corporate world. By upskilling in their respective industries, young leaders can demonstrate competence and expertise. This can be achieved through continuous learning and staying updated with industry trends and best practices.
💡 Conducting self-reflection and assessment is essential for young leaders to identify their strengths and weaknesses. By understanding themselves better, they can focus on improving their skills and becoming more effective in their roles. This includes improving communication, problem-solving, and people management skills, which are essential for gaining respect as a leader.
💡 Personal branding and executive presence play a significant role in how young leaders are perceived in the workplace. The way they present themselves, both in terms of appearance and behaviour, can impact how others view their professionalism and credibility. By paying attention to their grooming, communication style, and body language, young leaders can project a more mature and authoritative image, gaining respect from colleagues and team members.
