What is Encouraging?

You are the kind of presence on a team that lifts others up and makes them believe they can do hard things. Your words and energy create psychological safety and confidence in those around you. This kind of encouragement often unlocks performance that people didn't know they had.

When you might feel encouraging

Encouraging is a specific form of supportive, which itself is a type of collaborative. You might experience this feeling in situations where collaborative is present, particularly when the circumstances align with the nuances that define encouraging.
