<p>Value Creation through Career Paths and accessible Training Opportunities- Your people need to feel valued and this is a key step to achieving that.</p> <p>Ensure you have fair, achievable and accessible career paths and training opportunities that are supported by an exceptional leadership team.</p> <p>In order to make you the best leader you can be you need to embrace this key area and ensure you are supporting it.</p> <p>This is important for a few reasons; Employee’s will stay if they can follow a pathway that is clear and supported Career paths provide brilliant ways for employees to gain further training and be of greater value to your business, as well as themselves. Staff progressing through the business and staying helps promote a culture that is positive and rewarding, and encourages shared success Staff feel more valued and therefore more engaged if they can follow a career path This Engages your People and leads to innovation and improved culture which directly positively impacts the bottom line</p> <p>Developing your Personal Leadership- Always focus on this</p> <p>You may not have given much thought to how adults learn and retain knowledge, but in fact research shows they can be broken into 3 different learning styles….now these are not exclusive, there is overlap, but generally people are more dominant in one area. Knowing this will help you understand how your audience reacts to uptake of knowledge and will help you streamline and prepare key communications with your people. These are; Visual learner Auditory learner Kinesthetic learner</p> <p>Empathy and Value creation is a key pillar to Future Proofing you leadership skills- This is what your people demand. Hence focus on Servant leadership and Coaching to help get you there.</p> <p>Servant Leadership- Originally coined by Greenleaf in the 1970’s- A key to your success</p> <p>Servant leadership is a method of development for leaders. Servant leadership stresses the importance of the role a leader plays as the steward of the resources of the group, and teaches leaders to serve others while still achieving the goals set forth by the business.</p> <p>“The servant-leader is the servant first… It begins with the natural feeling that one wants to serve, to serve first. Then conscious choice brings one to aspire to lead. That person is sharply different from one who is leader first, perhaps because of the need to assuage an unusual power drive or to acquire material possessions”</p> <p>Greenleaf- The ten principles of servant leadership</p> <p>1. Listening. 2. Empathy. 3. Healing. 4. Awareness. 6. Conceptualization. 7. Foresight. 8. Stewardship. 9. Commitment to the Growth of People. 10. Building Community.</p> <p>Coaching Coaching is one of the key traits of an outstanding leader, and the skills you gain through practicing this will lead you to uncovering new ideas, needs, and strategies by working with your people. This naturally starts to future proof your leadership skills and keeps you ahead of the competition.. It is something that can be learned and will set you apart as a great leader if you can master the habits and make them part of your leadership style. Coaching is defined in many ways. The essence of coaching is: To help a person change in the way they wish and help them go in the direction they want to go. Coaching supports a person at every level in becoming who they want to be. Coaching builds awareness and empowers choice that leads to change. It unlocks a person’s potential to maximise their performance. Coaching helps them to learn rather than teaching them.</p> <p>Coaching is a learned skill, and like a muscle it is one of those things that can be developed with training and use. The more you practice it the stronger it gets, until it becomes second nature and forms a key part of your core business skill set.</p>

S7 E51 Develop your Future Proof Leadership Core skills with Lisa Askwith
<p>Learn to communicate and collaborate</p> <p>Communication and collaboration are vital to achieving a streamlined team. Every opportunity to foster teamwork should be embraced, this is a mindset shift for many leaders who are used to ‘telling’ instead of involving themselves. Group training that features Agile based games and exercises can also build bonds and be enjoyable, if you are struggling to achieve this. This aids in the development of effective communication.</p> <p>Be transparent (as much as possible)</p> <p>Sharing responsibility and being accountable are key factors in transparency. That means not just holding your team accountable, but you too! At the end of the day, it is a team effort. Withholding data or important information will do more harm than good, as will being directive without discussion or acceptance of ideas. Transparency in giving performance feedback and tracking growth and development boosts team morale. Don’t miss out on using these core skills.</p> <p>Stay humble and reflect- This is the hardest mindset shift for many leaders!</p> <p>Human error can sometimes produce negative outcomes. Instead of dwelling on the negatives, you should be able to take it as a learning experience and move on. Fail fast- fail forward- this helps keep everyone on track. People make mistakes for various reasons, understand them first and then you have the opportunity for growth and learning to occur.</p> <p>Develop you agile mindset skills to the point they are second nature</p> <p>The agile mindset places value on constant improvement, in today's constantly changing workplace this is a great benefit to you!. This is applied to software, techniques, and the people involved. Things and people always have room to improve and reach their highest potential, therefore growth and progress is an ongoing process. It also doesn’t just benefit employees. It boosts the performance of the firm as a whole, adn allows you to engage as a leader across all spectrums of the business and the people's needs.
