How do responsible leaders win in a highly competitive environment?
🙌🏻Competitive leaders are highly sought out for their expertise and the compensation mirrors the risk-reward benefits.
🙅♂️Unfortunately, experience has also proven faulty as some leaders cross the line of morality in pursuit of victory.
⚖️Competing to win in a business climate is multifaceted and requires a balanced leader.
💫One that can align the teams expertise to achieve a common goal. A leader that is is responsible, holds themselves and others accountable, and has a disciplined approach to adhere to core values.
🏟️High achievers want other like-minded achievers on their team. This balance empowers members to pull the perverbial rope 📿together.
High achievers set high standards and they don’t settle for excuses. 🚫
➡️The leaders role is to understand which levers to pull, how hard to pull them, and when to cheerlead from the sidelines.
Embrace the grind. Enjoy the journey. Keep listening.
🏆”For better or worse, culture and leadership are inextricably linked.”— #coachjoe
⁉️Are you clear about what the “language” your culture is communicating to your employees and your customers?
😑The wrong culture, diluted culture, or no culture – is a culture nonetheless.
⛰️Culture is what the company values, if it isn’t the employee and the customer, they’ll go elsewhere! Your culture exist, whether it’s understood or not.
💰This market culture prioritizes profitability. Everything is a valuated with a bottom line in mind; and there are often several degrees of separation between employees and leadership.
🤔Connection, at a human level to your culture boils down to 4 basic values; balance, purpose, recognition, and contribution.
🔋An important and often overlooked aspect of culture is despite its subliminal nature, people are effectively hardwired to respond to it instinctively. It acts as a silent language – an internal heartbeat if you will.
👊🏼Sustained Results depend upon building, a culture full of self disciplined people who take disciplined action fanatically.
➡️An enduring culture of discipline, powered by people who act in the companies, best interest without strict dictums from leadership.
👏👏Good cultures, have self disciplined people who are willing to go to extreme lengths to fulfill their responsibilities.
💪🏼The people in good cultures tend to be almost fanatical in pursuit of greatness. Now that’s culture!
🌩️Storms will descend on your plan and do everything it can to derail progress. The deluge will seem overwhelming – at times downright disruptive.
🌨️As the storms roll in don’t run away from it – run into it. Fleeing merely extends the cataclysm as it continues to its chase. Running towards the storm, shortens the length and severity.
🤔Possibilities happens when hope aligns with meaningful action. To move forward we must accelerate contribution through the process of learning.
💪🏼Change forces us to tap into resourcefulness & reinvent a new norm. The universe is starved for new discoveries, for the invention yet to be invented. The unwritten manuscript, the sonnet lying dormant on an old legal pad. The music & lyrics that failed to make it to the page. Or the numerous other life-altering creations just waiting on you!
➡️Continue forward with relentless effort and unleash your potential. Possibility happens when “hope” aligns with meaningful action!
👋🏻Hold true to a vision, values, and persistence. Continue forward with relentless effort in spite of the obstacles and unleash your potential greatness!
