Your Impact

Your Impact

The influence you exert on others and the relationships that govern your life


ELEMENT 1.3: YOUR IMPACT

“Every action we take impacts the lives of others around us. The question is: Are you aware of your impact?”
–Arthur Carmazzi

YOUR Understanding

Whereas the first two elements—nature and instinct—are internal aspects of the self, the next two elements are external factors that greatly impact your decisions and behaviour.

Your impact encompasses several aspects: the effect you have on yourself, the effect others have on you, and the effect you have on others.

We’ll begin by exploring the relationship you currently have with yourself because before you can work on external relationships, it’s crucial to cultivate a strong understanding of your self.

YOUR RELATIONSHIPS

Once you have looked within, you can then turn your attention outward to examine the key relationships in your life. These relationships include not only the people in your life right now, but those who may no longer be in your life but who have had a significant effect on your self-image and way of operating.

The quality of our relationships has a tremendous impact on our success, fulfillment, and legacy. By mapping the key relationships in your life, you’ll determine which relationships in your life are uplifting you, which you want to move away from, and which need more of your attention. To do so, you’ll use a tool called the Relationship Onion, which separates your relationships into four categories, each with a different level of closeness: the Circle of Intimacy, the Circle of Friendship, the Circle of Participation, and the Circle of Exchange.

“Leadership is not about a title or designation. It’s about impact, influence, and inspiration.”

–ROBIN SHARMA

YOUR ECOSYSTEM

Using the Relationship Onion tool, you’ll reflect on and reprioritise your relationships to ensure they are supporting you on your LIONS journey. We’ll also discuss whether there are any gaps in your ecosystem. For instance, are you missing out on important mentors, friends, colleagues, or intimate relationships? If so, we’ll set a plan for bringing those into your life so you can strengthen your support system.

We’ll also consider what impact you bring to your ecosystem and discuss some key strategies for improving the quality of the relationships in your life.

As a leader, you already know how to inspire trust and use your emotional intelligence to connect with others. However, the work you do in Stage 1 will allow you to further enhance and strengthen your connectivity so that you can adeptly foster multi-dimensional relationships in all areas of your life.

YOUR IMPACT QUESTIONS

To fully understand your impact, we need to engage people in your ecosystem. We have created a 360° of Influence Survey, which we will discuss in detail during our first session. We will need the results from all your chosen participants in time for our second session for you to fully gain value from this element.
