This year is going to be leadership-defining year for all companies and employees. The current management crisis has turned out to be a different ball game. Victory from the scarce environment will be different from succeeding under optimum conditions. The strategies will be different for all companies. Some will do great innovations and some will fumble. Everyone can’t be the winner. The winning edge will be the deciding factor. The golden mantra or the key to success will be connect with people.
The approach the leaders make to the people will hold the success. It’s all about passing the message with great clarity and precision. The deciding factor will be how the leader connects with his peer members. It’s about gaining confidence in the people. It’s about making the people believe in the success they are going to reap within the year. The more the confidence of the people the more will be the energy level displayed by the front runners on and off the field. Great leaders connect with people in the simplest ways. Let the meeting be simple and precise. When the people can predict the outcome after the team meeting the leader is through the first half of the battle. The rest will be a mix of optimism, execution and a mix of positive energy. The shouting boss is digging his own grave. The need of the hour is a calm, well tuned and result oriented leader.
Let the people get connected in the form of family get togethers although cost cutting is the trend these days. First the people stay focused in the organization then they will start delivering their best.
