Everyone struggles with an inner critic — that voice in your head speaking negatively and hindering your confidence. Speaker, author, and Emmy Award-winning broadcaster Anne Marie Anderson recently spoke about shutting down your inner critic during Women Leading Travel & Hospitality’s Virtual Exchange earlier this month.

Not only should leaders work on addressing their own negative self-talk, but also their teams, Anderson advised the audience. This can inspire confidence and risk-taking that otherwise would seem too bold to try.

“You know what your inner critic is saying. But to be a shape-shifting leader, you really need to know your team well enough to know what they might be saying to themselves.”
