In this episode of the Thoughtful Entrepreneur, your host Josh Elledge speaks to the Co-Founder of Greatness Group, Gina Mollicone-Long. Gina Mollicone-Long's work is centered around the concept of greatness, a quality she believes exists in everyone. Her mission is to help people remove the obstacles that prevent them from expressing their greatness fully. Through her learning platform, Greatness U, she works with a diverse range of clients, from corporate teams and C-level executives to individuals. Gina teaches leaders how to read people and tailor their leadership style accordingly, which leads to more successful outcomes with less effort. This approach is particularly relevant when addressing the issue of burnout. Gina suggests analyzing the leader's current leadership approach and identifying any inefficiencies. When a leader feels exhausted and unmotivated, she recommends adapting one's leadership style to match their team members' preferred representation system. By understanding how individuals process information (visually, auditory, kinesthetic, or digitally), leaders can communicate more effectively and reduce burnout by working smarter, not harder. She explained that many leaders struggle with self-perception and often underestimate their potential. This self-perception affects their ability to lead effectively and connect with their teams. Gina emphasized the importance of understanding and adapting to the differences in individuals' needs and preferences. Gina also highlighted the significance of addressing mental barriers and limiting beliefs that CEOs and leaders often carry. By addressing these internal obstacles, leaders can create a direct line of communication with their employees, fostering rapport and removing barriers to effective leadership.

Tweetable Moments:

12:40 - "The more you know about someone, the more you chameleon yourself, and then what that does, here's what happens fundamentally at the neurological level, is the other person, the employee goes, 'Oh my god, this person gets me,' and that removes all barriers to communication. The process is called rapport. The minute you have a direct line to someone, they will follow you without objection. That is how you lead people. Don't understand it's a mechanism, it's a process, and we just break down the processes chunk by chunk."
