150: How to Identify Perfectionism in Yourself and Your Team with Jess Joswick

Episode 150 Published 3 years, 3 months ago
Description
Perfectionism is a word and an idea that we throw around frequently, but has anyone taught us how to actually identify its signs within ourselves? Within our team? If we can’t identify perfectionism within ourselves and in our team, we can’t begin to dismantle it and develop more sustainable personal and professional habits. Awareness is the first step to becoming, as we like to say, a Recovering Perfectionist. This is part two of a three-part series where Erin is joined by business and leadership coach Jess Joswick to discuss perfectionism in all its forms, especially the ones we don’t want to confront. With a special emphasis on the habits and mindsets that seem “normal” but are actually perfectionism in disguise, this episode helps you to discover what your particular perfectionistic tendencies are and begin brainstorming their sustainable replacements.   ICYMI – Your Post-Episode Homework: Ask yourself two questions, marinate on your responses, and journal specific actions steps you’ll take as a result: 1) Do I identify with perfectionism? (Have I been in tinkering mode on any project? Have I been thinking and thinking about a specific project or tasks that need to get off my plate?) 2) Is anyone on my team dealing with perfectionism? (Are they working a lot of long hours? Are they experiencing black and white thinking? Are they truly working more than anybody else on your team, but the results just aren't there?)   Connect with Jess Joswick:   Show Links:
