Lady Leadership - Careers and Business For Women

Are you thinking strategically in your Career and Job?

Samantha McIntyre Season 2 Episode 83

In this episode of the Lady Leadership podcast I revisit an episode that I recorded with Rebecca Houghton from BoldHr where we talked about strategy. 

One area that the B suite or Middle Managers need to focus there time on is strategy.  Have a listen to this podcast and ask yourself are you thinking strategically in your role .

Have you:
- Set a vision
- Do you know the problems you need to solve
- Are you working on the right problems
- Are there options? 
- What are the knowns and unknowns.

B-Suite leaders are today's middle managers, the glue that holds organizations together, translating strategy into action and creating high-performing workforces. Yet the B-Suite is stretched thin. They are too junior to be 'in the room', yet senior enough to be looked up to by their team. They are expected to provide information, decisions, and direction and often have little to go on. 
 
It can be a frustrating space, and their development is often overlooked. Yet enabling these B suite leaders to adjust to the new normal, and to have an even greater impact is a huge win for any organization. So, how can you gain greater control over the pace of work and influence outcomes more easily?
