Wrap-up on the 5&5 on how to detect your values to thrive in the modern world of work
Here's a wrap-up of 5&5 about identifying your values -- the ones that are resonant and essential for you. In this 5&5, Lyssa Adkins offers you 5 ways to detect your values to thrive in the modern world of work.
Expand your teams' 5 CCs
If teams, and especially executive teams, are going to function in turbulent times they need to expand their 5 Core Competencies (or 5 CCs for short). Underlying these five is Relationship Systems Intelligence, a powerful and quite-a-bit-faster way to build core competencies.

Downshift your nervous system
It's all well and good to recognize that your body's neuroception has created a nervous system alert and your executive functions have gone offline, but then what do you do? In this episode Lyssa offers two quick ways to get your thinking brain back online and two key questions to ask yourself as you are headed to your next meeting.

Take responsibility for your state
Leaders who thrive in disruption and messiness take responsibility for their state. “What kind of state?” you might ask. We're talking about the state of your nervous system and your ability to know when your brain has been hijacked!

Do your leadership development work out loud
Leading in turbulent times means going first in the courageous work of upgrading one's complexity of mind. The most effective leaders do this work "out loud" and, in so doing, get a lot of help accelerating their own development while also creating a pathway for this upgrade in the whole org.
Don’t believe everything you think
To lead in turbulent times, we need to stop believing everything we think! When we interrogate how our mind works we can see more of what's really going on and we can compare notes with team members so that -- together -- we can make better decisions.

Wrap-up on the 5&5 on how to use your values to thrive in the modern world of work
Here's a wrap-up of 5&5 about values. Specifically, how to use your values to make confident decisions, lever up to your next level and chart your path to fulfillment at work. In this 5&5, Lyssa Adkins offers you 5 ways to use your values to thrive in the modern world of work.
Using your values to lever up to your next level
Identifying aspirational values helps you visualize and lever up to your next level; your future state of greatness.
Using your values to create insight and action from challenging events
Getting clear about what values are at stake opens up a new world of responses, possibilities, and requests to others (and yourself) to make a challenging situation go much better next time.
Using your values to make decisions with confidence
Use your values to set a powerful internal compass that pulls you forward to your desired future and to make conscious choices that activate that future.
Using your values to navigate complexity
Creating statements of what you value more (and less) helps you make aligned decisions and hold tensions in complex situations rather than deciding unconsciously.
Using your values to create core stability
Use your values to create core stability and hold on to what is essential to you, especially when things seem uncertain or are falling away. Bonus: creating core stability with your values also helps determine how likely you are to be fulfilled at work.
