LEAD AND MANAGE EXHILARATINGLY
Right Time, Right Thing, Right Way
Why focus on leadership and management?
Imagine your leaders and managers inspiring those around them to make the changes required to fully achieve your goals and their potential?
​
Believe they can improve? Want to sharpen their capabilities?
Why change the way we lead and manage?
​
Changing Context and Environment
Staff expect more awareness and sensitivity to their needs from their management and leadership. When they don’t get it the best ones often ‘vote with their feet’. Worse, others may just get demotivated and stay!
​
‘People join organisations and leave managers!’
​
Successful leaders are aware of and seek understanding and responses to the drivers for their teams, customers and colleagues. They see the big picture, detect trends and make the changes required early.
​
Less successful leaders entrench in dogmatic views. They ‘get stuck’
​
Which category do the managers and leaders you are responsible for fit in?
Drivers for change
These are some of the challenges leaders and managers tell us they are facing (For more detail see our blog “Leadership and management drivers for change”.):
• Retaining staff - The great resignation, often followed by the great regret
• Increasing operational pressure
• Drive for economic growth
• Initiative fatigue/ Continually changing landscape
• People stuck in dogma and unproductive habits
• Changing staff attitudes and expectation
• Remote working
• Mental health and fitness
• Returning to the workplace
• Communication challenges
• Competition
• Engaging for high performance
• Selecting and deploying the appropriate technology in the workplace e.g. AI
​
Do you want to support your leaders and managers to articulate and deliver effective strategies and behaviours in the face of the above?
We have noticed that leaders and managers who appear most empowered, those that others want (love) to follow, have a set of career and life capabilities that appear good predictors of success.
• They make good choices, often enquiring and using facts and information in their decision making rather than emotion and instinct alone.
• They have self-awareness and self-mastery, often categorised as emotional intelligence
• They take responsibility when they should
• They develop powerful networks of relationships and recognise they can’t do it alone
• They have clarity of purpose
• They understand value and the importance of developing mutual value
​
Those leaders that lack any of the above, tend to struggle more.
​
