Answering this straightforward question may change your business forever: What does it mean to be a leader in your organization?
As a leadership coach and trainer, I am often asked, “What is the best leadership training for my organization?” My response is always, “What change do you want to make, and what makes that change important for your organization?” I ask those questions because most organizations use leadership training to react to an adverse behavioral or systemic trend in their operations. That simple question almost always leads to discovering a simple truth: Leaders in the organization don’t know what it means to lead effectively. Effective leaders lead in a way that encourages their people and promotes business sustainability.
