It’s so easy to get bogged down in decision making and general administrative duties because the team simply cannot handle them. For the leader to elevate and begin leading in a more strategic way, the team must evolve.
It is an important realization when a leader realizes they have to work hard to serve their people to find success. This realization is what defines the strongest leaders from the stereotypical “bosses”.
In the workplace of the past, leadership was a separate skill from project management. Project managers must now know technical project management as well as leadership. The new age workforce is one that requires purpose and inspiration to find success.
In order to climb above the clouds and out of the tactical fog, help the team see past it by bringing context and perspective to the company’s Strategic Objectives.
Does your title make you a leader? Do your people automatically feel accountable to you because of this title? Your chances of success as a leader can be improved with some basic changes to your relationship to the team.
