Leading Beyond Any Title
Leading Beyond Any Title – How to Lead When the Leading Gets Tough
When things are going well, leadership can seem easy, and focusing on developing leadership skills can also seem like a nice thing to do.
However, leading when times are tough… when a team is not performing as expected – the number isn’t being hit, the results are being generated, collaboration and communication are failing… can be a different thing. Leadership development during these times can seem like a luxury one cannot afford to take time for.
Leading a struggling team is never fun, but paying attention to leadership basics – remain positive, take care of yourself first, check the reality of the situation, diagnose what the cause is, and enrolling your team in determining next steps – are all critically important leadership skills that this episode covers.
