Leadership, Trust and Curiosity
Last week, I asked what would change if everyone in your organization knew exactly what was expected of them. If communication at the top of your organization's priorities, and each person knew unequivocally what the completed task, standard of excellence, and finished product looked like, sounded like, felt like, what would change?
When employees feel there is an established level of trust, she or he asks questions, approaches you to challenge assumptions, and clarifies with curiosity. The result? High productivity and high workplace satisfaction.
Do you model this? Do you encourage your team to respectfully disagree and challenge you in their communication? Do you ever ask for help or admit when you made a mistake? How you show up in 2020 as a leader will set this stage for your team and is more important than it ever has been. As we create new working styles, clarify workplace/work at home practices, and even show recognition in our new work world teams need to know their leader is leading, and not merely hoping for a return to normal.
How do you lead? What kind of communication will smooth the way for the new workplace and what needs to change? Do you know how to approach change?
My team will help you to assess your workplace, workstyle and to get a clear picture of the way you want to see your team performing as we lift our heads and move forward in this new world. Reach out today or book a company consultation here https://www.jenschrafftcoaching.com/contact.
