Want to grow the confidence level of your team? Don’t encourage them to take a fake-it-till-you-make-it approach. Instead, pay attention to what people genuinely do well. It will foster self-confidence to focus on strengths, not weaknesses or what we don’t have. TRY THIS: At your next team meeting, ask team members what is going well and what they are celebrating. Have them identify how their natural strengths are contributing to the outcome. Knowing (and celebrating) strengths builds the kind of authentic confidence that allows people to say, “I’m great at _______________” and “I’m ready for more work on __________!”
