My Top Five Inspirational Leaders of Today on Instagram
Adam Grant
Adam Grant is an organizational psychologist and best-selling author who specializes in sharing his findings around motivation and creativity. By following Grant’s account you’ll see a steady flow of quotes that will challenge you to think outside of the box. Not only will these ideas be a great spark of personal inspiration, they are fabulous nuggets of wisdom to share with your team as well.
Big Life Journal
Big Life Journal is dedicated to “creating resilience in children by teaching them how to have a ‘I can do hard things’ mindset so they can live their biggest lives.” One quick look at the account and you might think that it’s only relevant for children, but trust me when I say this is a serious treasure trove of activities, thought exercises, and journal questions that can help people of all ages tap into the power of growth mindset. I can’t recommend it enough!
Brené Brown
As a famed researcher who has spent decades studying courage, vulnerability, and shame, you would think Brown would have an extremely powerful Instagram account - and she does! Follow Brown on Instagram for a healthy mix of motivation quotes, personal stories, and updates on how to choose brave and courageous leadership day in and day out.
Priya Parker
Priya Parker first hit the scene when she interviewed more than 100 gatherers around the world and wove together their wisdom and her own experiences in her acclaimed book The Art of Gathering. Since then, she’s become the go-to expert on how to create more meaningful gatherings. Follow her to learn more about timely topics such as how to create connection with your remote team, host better meetings, and how to live (and thrive) while social distancing.
Susan David, Ph.D.
Let’s be real, as leaders we can experience a rollercoaster of emotions. Not all of them positive! I love following Susan because she speaks directly to the importance of experiencing negative emotions, as well as their ability to serve a purpose and teach us something important. I truly believe that it’s only when we validate our own emotions, that we can truly make space to validate others emotions as well and this account is a wonderful reminder of that truth.
