The aim is onerous, but the end goal a pin drop to a surface only emotions know from experience where to pick it up. How we know about leading will always be informed by where we saw it applied, and that a subjection to it.
Leadership starts within if you want to run anything with success if put in its fore. It is a must therefore for a leader to then know what those they lead wants out of their leadership style in line with the project objective or company culture and its set goals to achieve. A leader should out of that, coupled with what the outcomes desire, distinguish the type of people they're in lead of, say a team or a group. If a team, must then work to devise a unified approach to tackle obstacles, and a team specific game plan on how to best utilize the pooled skills in their possession to win against all odds.
To obtain a certain level of results from your team, there ought to be a clear plan around them that's tied to your game plan as well your plan around them for growing them individually. As team players, they each need special attention, so, you'll need to develop a method for every one of them that suits their different backgrounds. To unearth a potential of each, tailor a work plan to meet each's optimal performance to deliver a result that's favourable per your routed method for each phase of the project or entity's vision building. Leading from the back or from the front, a good leader always puts the team first before their set goals and themselves, they advance empathy, understanding and the spirit of commercialization through sense of immediacy, teamliness and holistic rewarding.
The team needs to also be reminded that a leader, same as them, is a different cut to paste into the fabric that makes them be as a collective; unified and productive for a common goal and cause. One other aspect of it all is to shape the affinity in cause for a whole different approach to the delivery thereof. As a collaborative effort, the team and the leader ought to gel in order to reach the desired outcomes on every franchised venture whether micro or macro, and within or outside of the workplace. And, mind you, it's a known fact that a team will always have deviants, as such, know how to spot and weed out rogue elements and, have a rebound strategy if there been significant dent to the set time frames. Proficiency is key in tackling such, wherefore, should be vigilant in navigating through.
The team needs to know and be assured of your compass to victory at all material times. Additionally to that, support them constructively. As a leader, you should be consistent in uniformity and parity with guidance, rules and regulations application, appraisals, opportunity availing, gender-based agenda, and being same to everyone yet guided by their dealt personalities on how you're to best attend to them individually. Smart delegation a touch of must so as to fit the prime heights your leadership is centered around. Leadership is an art, samely as working under guidance that's designed methodically to enable subordination. So, lay your game plan as a platform that'll ignite the team's instincts for fire starting in order to let them shine variably to your glow for a collective glory.
In conclusion: different as we are, we share the same vision that's shaped by the company culture, with winning at its core. For the purpose of gathering soles to form a collective, the primary objective is making a living per our prorated ranks and involvements, and for outcomes to be to best favour our desires, needing to deliver at optimum.
As a leader, it's then rested in you to see to it that the team is fueled to the brinks. To achieve such you should recurrently capacitate, navigate easier pathways to success, and offer all tools necessary for their enablement. But, above all, be an umbrella in rainy days for them as a team to individually thrive...dp
