There was a time when work was simple enough for managers to be able to plan, organize, and control all of the work themselves. Managers were given skills to achieve control.
But business has changed. High performing organizations need to wield incredible talent and react quicker than before. To be successful today, managers need to establish extensive bonds of trust.
Leader Skills provides the critical skills necessary for transitioning from control-based management to commitment-based management.
Leaders unleash team energy and enthusiasm by creating a vision that others find inspiring.
Leaders serve as role models by walking the talk and demonstrating the behaviors they expect others to exhibit.
Leaders teach others, help them develop their potential, maintain a balance of authority and ensure accountability in those they lead.
Leaders understand the big picture and translate changes in the business environment into organizational opportunities.
Leaders break down artifical walls, open doors, run interference for the team and challenge the status quo.
Leaders make available the necessary tools, information and resources so that the team can accomplish its goals.
Leaders develop and maintain close customer ties, articulate customer needs and balance organizational priorities with customer expectations.
