...IF you learn to translate your innate leadership strengths into tangible action.
Fellow Open Book Boss, Michael Scott, shares your desire to connect with your work and your team. You're committed to creating community within your business, or else, what's the point?
You pour everything into your people, and you often build strong friendships with your team.
Your priority is your team's development.
You're intuitive and can often pick up on small things in others before they even say it.
Your passion and beliefs are open and honest, and you expect the same thing from your team.
You thrive on seeing your team succeed, which directly impacts your business success.
Your boundaries are ever evolving based on who you are working with, or non-existent in many cases, making it easy to take advantage of you.
Your ability to empathize can seep into your productivity, and can make those tough conversations even harder to have.
Your team may not be as open with you when the issue is rooted in your leadership, and may suffer or leave as a result.
You have found yourself with resentful feelings toward team members who may not have worked out.
Communication is often spent on relationship building, and it can be shocking to switch gears to productive or disciplinary issues, causing trust to be broken easily.
Modern leaders have grown out of the traditional leadership resources out here. Throw in a rapidly changing work environment, and unpredictable and unprecedented business challenges, developing ourselves as leaders that celebrate differences and diversity is the last thing on our "Must Do Today No Matter What" list.
WIthout team support, our companies can't last. Without confidence, our teams won't deliver. And without modern leadership education, the journey to build a successful team feels impossible.
