If you've never been called out, you've probably witnessed it. It's embarrassing, deflating and degrading. There's a better way. Our guest, Julliette Odhiambo, introduces us to the concept of calling someone up, instead of calling them out. A supportive and honoring approach to challenge someone we lead means that when a mistake is made, or if motivation is required, we do it in a caring way where our mindset is to develop them into great employees and future (or present) leaders.  We do this in a way that fights for their highest good. Julliette Odhiambo focuses on leading young people and she sees the results of calling up. People rise to the level of your belief in them. It doesn't mean we shy away from challenge or from difficult conversations, but it does mean we do it in a way that allows them to grow and learn all with the respect and value they deserve.  Not only does Juliette say that we don't shy away from challenging conversations, but she says great leadership leans into these conversations in order to help the person mature and grow. It would be unkind to let them get by with behavior that is not to the standard you know they should be. Juliette shares the Dr. Cecil Murray quote that says "Speak without offending; listen without being defensive; and always leave the other person with their dignity."  The goal is to continue to value the person. She also brings up a tool from previous episodes, The 5 Circles of influence to highlight the importance of living out this tool with every group of people we encounter, including ourselves.Juliette is a leadership development coach.
