Fostering a culture of collaboration is crucial for cultivating robust workplace relationships. Many people could collaborate better with their team, partners, and employees -- they simply lack the intentional focus to do so. I aim to highlight why collaboration is so critical today, and why you should focus on building a culture of collaboration across your organization.
As a newly minted manager, earning trust, having difficult conversations, demonstrating commitment, providing accountability, working towards intended results, taking Control, and meeting the team / customer / company needs is a lot of effort!
Maximizing personal effectiveness is a crucial skill, but blind spots can often hinder your progress. Beware the impact of your blind spots--they can decrease your effectiveness and damage your work relationships, whether you're a business owner, executive, manager, or frontline worker. The good news is that you can learn how to identify and eliminate these blind spots, for yourself and others.
Without Vision, I believe humans are left blowing aimlessly in the wind—rudderless in turbulent water. That being said, a company’s strategic vision describes what? Let's frame it up a bit together.
Active Listening in the workplace (and the rest of life) does not come naturally for many--myself included, and I lead this group! Those who master this skill build better relationships, find more meaningful clarity, achieve goals, maximize potential, and develop superior problem-solving skills. For these reasons alone, and there are several more, we as leaders must enhance our listening skills.
Self-awareness is required in Leadership. Reputation is a prerequisite to effective Leadership. Reputation is everyone's responsibility!
It is the leader's job to ensure that Reputation is managed effectively! But make no mistakes, it is everyone's job to maintain and elevate organizational Reputation. Trust, performance, and engagement are critical for a strong Organizational Reputation.
Reputation is a long-term word. One must have a vision of what one desires to be known for and work towards it in the good, bad, and in between times. There will be bumps, bruises, and damaged egos along the journey. Reputation is built by a demonstrated long-term body of work, personally, professionally, and organizationally!
Generational personal effectiveness skills are varied. When building a collaborative team in your workplace, do you intentionally harvest these generational skills, trends, and aptitudes? Or do you try to make everyone fit your cookie cutter?
Rally your team and achieve success as never before! This is your year.
If you are anything like me, there is just not enough time in the day to get it all done. I have determined the reason for this struggle to be FOCUS. In our efforts to get it all done, we simply don’t get any of it done or worse yet done right. Do you ever feel that way? Believe it or not, your team feels that way as well. Whether they communicate that fact or not, they too are distracted and overwhelmed at times.
