Leadership Effectiveness

Below are some areas that I focus on to help leaders shift their focus from day-to-day crisis management to Strategic Leadership :

• Strengthen Your Mastermind
  • A Mastermind is a group of trusted confidantes on your team that share your vision.
  • Most leaders hit a point in their career where they cannot fulfill their vision alone. The Mastermind helps to leverage other peoples’ ideas, support and energy to fulfill the leaders’ vision.
• Increase Accountability
  • Set a direction for your people by setting organizational goals
    • Identify and develop strategic, tactical and performer layers in your organization
    • Set goals for the strategic layer
  • Insure that each person in your organization has a set of goals
    • Insure that the strategic layer is setting goals for the tactical layer and the tactical layer for the performers
  • Get “buy in” on the goals
    • Measure and Reassess the goals
    • Agree on consequences and rewards
• Sharpen your leadership skills
  • Coaching
  • Mentoring
  • Delegating
  • Goal Setting
• Create a performance oriented culture
  • Insure that the each layer understands its goals and how to achieve them
