When under-performance has been an issue for managers I’ve coached, often the underlying cause has been a lack of confidence.

Little or no confidence can be debilitating.

When a leader has little or no confidence it can permeate throughout their team and wider. Through coaching and facilitating individuals and teams, I’ve seen three common factors emerge as the foundation for confidence. These are:

Presence + Authority + Impact

Over focusing on one may cause a dent in confidence at some point. Presence is about earning the respect of those around you, demonstrating your listening skills and empathy. Things like meditation can help. If that’s not for you, however, then simply making sure you’re blocking out space throughout the day to ‘re-set’ can help. And failing that, just making sure you have a 5 minute breather before going from one meeting to another can definitely help. Authority is about your cumulative experience, knowledge and achievements. Forget humble bragging. This is about you knowing your value through what you’ve learned and experienced. Mistakes are okay, as long as you learned from them – they make you that bit wiser – they’re your battle scars. A really good thing to do if your lack of confidence resides here is to update your CV. This have often provided breakthrough moments for coaching clients. Impact is about your ability to shift people’s minds and emotions. Essentially this is about your underlying communication skills. Key here is to understand your own preferences when being communicated with, and in making decisions. Not everyone will feel or think the same way as you so don’t fall in to the trap of trying to change people’s minds by applying the approaches that work on you. Preparation is key for impact and when coaching clients have taken the time to prepare what they’re going to say and how they’re going to say it, it’s made the world of difference. Keeping a harmony and balance between the three should build confidence and enhance performance.

Who is the god of relaxing?

Pasithea In Greek mythology, Pasithea (Ancient Greek: Πασιθέα means "relaxation"), or Pasithee, was one of the Charites (Graces), and the personification of relaxation, meditation, hallucinations and all other altered states of consciousness.

Personification of relaxation, meditation and hallucinations in Greek mythology

Not to be confused with Pasiphaë

In Greek mythology, Pasithea (Ancient Greek: Πασιθέα means "relaxation"), or Pasithee, was one of the Charites (Graces), and the personification of relaxation, meditation, hallucinations and all other altered states of consciousness. The Charites are usually said to be the daughters of Zeus and Eurynome, but Pasithea's parentage is given (by the poet Nonnus) as Hera[1] and Dionysus.[2] She was married to Hypnos, the god of sleep.[3]

Family [ edit ]

Her sisters are Aglaea ("Splendor"), Euphrosyne ("Mirth"), and Thalia ("Good Cheer"). In Roman mythology they were known as the Gratiae, the "Graces". In book 14 of Homer's Iliad, Pasithea was one of the younger Charites. Hera promises her in marriage to Hypnos the god of sleep in exchange for him ensuring Zeus was temporarily removed from the action of the Trojan War.[4] Robert Graves thinks that Homer also mentions the names of two Charites, Pasithea and Cale ("Beauty"), but the two Charites Homer used for Hesiod's Aglaea. Although the Graces usually numbered three, according to the Spartans, Cleta, not Thalia, was the third, and other Graces are sometimes mentioned including Auxo, Hegemone, Peitho and Phaenna.
