As leaders and managers we are on show and our actions often speak louder than our words. In challenging times this is even more evident because when under pressure, cracks may appear and our leadership is put to the test.
- Are we worth following to the future?
- What is our vision for the future?
- What do we stand for?
- How well can we manage ourselves and our business in a crisis or tough times?
These and other similar questions often go unasked and unanswered. Increasingly people want to know what we stand for, what we value and what we are unwilling to compromise in the quest for a viable, healthy team and business.
If these questions sound familiar, you will find this quarter's Discussion Paper valuable as it focuses on:
- The importance of culture, motives, values, preferences and team cohesiveness
- Leadership derailers and coping strategies
Gaining insights into behaviours that could potentially undermine or inhibit your performance and ability to effectively build trust based relationships will assist you to lead people and your business more effectively and help you avoid putting you, your people and your businesses at unnecessary risk.
