Watch, Listen & Read - For Top Leaders Who Dare To Be Human & Real and Who Know That Leading Others Starts With Themselves
Do You Really Know Where You're Going?
Do you really know where you're going? I did not for quite a long time.
I simply went through the motions.
And had no idea about what was really important to me. Except for the obvious: my family and my career.
The thing is: I had goals. And plans. Like I was taught to do.
And often they did not work out. Which was really frustrating and deep inside I often felt like a failure.
It took me a long time until I figured out what was missing.
The underlying parts
Purpose.
Vision.
When I thought about those two levels my first impulse was…oh, no - not anything more to think about or to make my world more complicated.

I have not lost it, nor do I believe that some higher power hid that purpose, and it's my job to find it. What IS my job is to listen to my inner voice and truth that helps...
Monday thought #15: My 3 Words for 2022
Those who know me a bit longer know that during the last years I've always chosen one or some words each year.
Words for what is important for me in life (and work) - and to focus on them throughout the year.
It does not replace setting (external) goals - it rather complements it.
This year I chose 3 words.
Contrary to last year - where I only came to define them in February - this year they bubbled up fairly easily. I tried them on, rolled them over in my head and heart and waited for them to resonate.
They did.
In this podcast series you'll hear
- WHY defining a (or more) word(s) for the year make sense for everybody
- What these words have to do with your external goals
- What my words are (and why I chose them)

Hi, I'm Claudia and the founder of The Better Workplace and creator of the Personal Leadership eXperience 5.0 program. Having spent 30 years in leading positions in the IT business, and running my own company provided me with tons of knowledge, insight and learnings which I'm sharing with you on a weekly basis. Oh - and did I mention that I raised two kids on my own? That was probably when I learned most about humans - how we work, and where we screw up. What works, what doesn't work. What makes us happy, how to get those relationships working and how to get more energy. Still lots to learn and to find out - and you can be the first to learn what I learn - just subscribe to my weekly newsletter and you're in. Lots of love, Claudia
