Become A Leader

Natural leaders are hard to come by.

Almost half of companies surveyed by Workplace Trends said “leadership” is the hardest skill to find in employees. Only 36 percent of employees consider “leadership” a strength in their organization.

The implications are clear. We need to nurture and develop young, engaged leaders to fill roles in the future. Here are some thoughts on ways we can do this before it’s too late:

1. Clearly communicate vision.

Only four in 10 managers strongly agree with the statement, “This year, I have had opportunities at work to learn and grow,” in Gallup’s survey.

The perception of limited opportunities is a big factor in disengagement. If future leaders can’t see what they’re working toward, what’s the point?

Demonstrate how their role positively affects their peers and the organization’s goals as a whole. Show them how what they do is more than just a job -- it’s a contribution to a greater good.

2. Create a culture of learning and development.

Thirtynine percent of companies surveyed by Workplace Trends offered leadership development programs, yet only 15 percent of employees felt the training they received effectively prepared them for their next role.

It seems the problem the quality of the program or failure to notice learning opportunities .

  •  Make employees aware of any growth opportunities right in front of them.
  • Train employees to invest in one another.
  • Encourage seasoned employees to mentor newer employees.

Employees who have been at the organization a few months can help mentor brand new employees.

3. Identify leadership strengths.

In the report, Gallup identified a rare combination of five characteristics great managers possess.

  • they motivate their employees
  • assert themselves to overcome obstacles
  • create a culture of accountability
  • build trusting relationships and make informed
  • unbiased decisions for the good of their team and company

The easier current managers and employees can spot these talents among their peers and within themselves, the sooner they can cultivate them.

4. Encourage employees to use their strengths every day.

People who use their strengths every day are six times more likely to be engaged on the job, Gallup found.

Create opportunities every day for employees to do what they do best so they feel a sense of accomplishment and purpose while working toward being a leader.

Find a way to allow each employee to exercise their own unique strengths each day.

Great interesting short snippets of informative articles. Highly recommended to anyone who loves information and lacks patience.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!
