This presentation focuses on the mindset and importance of acknowledging, celebrating, and appreciating yourself especially as a leader. This presentation treats celebration and appreciation as personal skills that disrupt the norm of thinking that there is a right way and right time to celebrate. Instead, we take another look at celebration and appreciation and explore how each of us likes to celebrate, what energizes us, and acknowledge our progress/efforts. Feedback from previous participants on their biggest learning/takeaway: "Thinking about how things look from outside." "Not just celebrating the big things." "To remember it's okay to celebrate." "We need to find ways to get the team to celebrate more." "We haven't been focused on recognizing and celebrating our accomplishments." "We should celebrate success via ways that others appreciate, but we have to do it for ourselves first." "Concept of celebrating effort."

How you show up as a leader is a reflection of how comfortable and confident you are in yourself. Great leaders are comfortable with their strengths and with being a resource for their teams' success! Poor leaders aren't willing to share ideas and information, don't know where they stand, and hold their teams back because of their insecurities and doubts. This presentation focuses on why resiliency at the individual level is key to great leadership.

This presentation focuses on methods and tools to create and enhance a happiness mindset and positive attitude.
