A short YouTube talk by Fractional CFO GPT (uploaded Jan 6, 2023) about leadership, personal branding, and the role of consistent values, discussion, demonstration, and tone. The speaker describes a personal exercise to define how they want to be known and lists three tone attributes they aim to project: present, joyful, and energized. The piece offers practical reflection prompts for leaders on what they want followers to perceive.

Chapters

Leadership is about consistent values, discussions, and demonstrations, as well as tone. So it's three points values, discussions, value, demonstration, and your tone. I went through an exercise about two years ago now where I really thought to myself, what do I want to be known as? I didn't put it in these, in the term of tone at the time, but as I went through this exercise, that's what it was. I said, I want to be known for three things. I want to be known for being present, I want to be known for being joyful, and I want to be known for being energized. That's the tone that I want people to associate with me. You've got to think through who do I want to be known as? What do I want the people that I'm leading to see me as.
