⚡Leadership is about ditching self-interest and focusing on people⚡

Ensuring that those one to one conversations with individuals are meaningful, high-value moments where the individual feels like the centre of your universe.

Food for thought. Crucial elements in leadership - it's all about people:
💡 Enabling teams and individuals to perform

💡 Building personal relationships

💡 Relationships that give & enable things to happen

💡 Focus on individuals

💡 Helping individuals deliver on their priorities

💡 Problem-solving with the team

💡 Early communication to teams

💡 Communication about what you are involved in as the leader

Negative leadership behaviours to avoid
💩Self-interest

💩Hierarchy building

💩Enforcer-governor relationships & attitudes

This week we release the eighth leadership chronicle and a story of success and failure shared by Christopher Argent from the 3rd conversation of #globalleadershiphypothesis - what makes a great leader.
