Losing Yourself in a Narcissistic Relationshi...
When you're in a narcissistic relationship, your world quietly starts to shrink.
As a leader, your mindset sets the tone for your team. When you struggle with low confidence and critical self-talk, it doesn’t stay hidden—it ripples through your business, creating an atmosphere of uncertainty.
Insecure staff = Higher turnover. Employees who don’t feel safe, supported, or valued will seek opportunities elsewhere.
Insecure staff = More mistakes. Fear of failure leads to hesitation, miscommunication, and costly errors.
Insecure staff = Increased costs. Constantly retraining new employees drains resources, time, and company morale.
A confident leader builds a secure team. When you develop Emotional Intelligence (EQ) and foster a culture of trust and empowerment, your staff will:
- Take initiative without fear of making mistakes.
- Feel valued, leading to long-term commitment.
- Perform at their best, reducing costly errors.
It starts with you. Invest in your confidence, and watch your team - and your business - thrive.
