As a leader, you have the power to unlock the potential in others, setting off a positive chain reaction across teams and, ultimately your entire organization.
Leadership
it starts with you
Leaders with visionary, participative and coaching leadership styles build productive, engaged teams. They also stay in their own roles for longer.
Whether you succeed depends on your style
But over time, they rarely bring out the best in their
teams—or business. If your approach is too focused
on the bottom line, without balancing the needs of individuals in your teams, you risk pushing people out
of your business. We’ve found that in organizations
where leaders create poor climates, 18% of people say they plan to leave within two years. That’s compared
to 7% in teams working in strong climates.
Whatever your leadership style, you’ll also be more
likely to unlock potential if you’re driven by a readiness
to challenge and be challenged. And if you understand that you can’t do it all alone: collaboration makes your whole business stronger. There are certain traits that set the leaders who nurture potential apart too. As well as being assertive when they need to be, they also tolerate ambiguity and are optimistic in outlook. That optimism
in turn helps create positive workplaces, where people
are energized to succeed.
TOXIC LEADERS LOSE
THEIR BALANCE
Leaders who only focus on hitting targets might be effective in the short-term.
They use their company purpose to guide decisions, rally teams and help everyone make the connection between their role and the bigger impact they have on the business. They also clearly articulate a shared mission and use it to give long-term direction to everyone around them.
Visionary leaders
see the big picture…
…and communicate about it constantly.
