Leaders have the unique opportunity to leave people better than they found them. By setting an example of positivity and providing encouragement, the “reaffirmers” of the world have the power to impact their teams, families, and clients in a beautiful way.
The Reaffirmers: Unlocking Human Potential
In a recent article, Deep Impact Luminaries discussed what it means to be a “reaffirmer” – someone who reaffirms the gifts and talents of human beings.
These individuals act as a source of support and inspiration, leaving people with a greater sense of confidence and potential.
What Does It Mean to Be a Reaffirmer?
A great example of this is Alberto, a doorman at a hotel who always has a smile on his face.
During one encounter, he shared advice from a top cardiologist that encouraged his customer to go for a long walk instead of running.
It’s clear that Alberto embodies what it means to be a “reaffirmer” – someone who sees the potential in others and offers uplifting words when needed.
Steps To Become a Reaffirmer
To become more like Alberto, follow these tips: always have something nice to say, be open about your own experiences, listen attentively, and provide words of encouragement.
Doing so can help others feel valued and appreciated – an essential part of becoming an effective leader.
