Are you experiencing some or all of the following?

These are some of the key symptoms that show leadership needs optimisation, to prevent it negatively impacting profitability.

1. Lack of awareness and FOCUS on the things that move the needle now – so that can mean too much “blue sky thinking” and not enough action; unclear short/medium term priorities; lack of clarity on the vision and how that breaks down into manageable chunks; trying to do too much rather than focus.
2. Poor accountability and execution of the things that are important and a priority.
3. Lack of setting clear expectations of employees, including what “great work” looks like – which leads to suboptimal results and not holding people accountable.
4. Poor team communication which can lead to in-fighting, power plays, sabotaging behaviours, inefficient working, poor accountability OR everyone on the team being too nice, and conflict avoidant!
5. Below average productivity (due to trying to do too much instead of focusing on the right things or ”shiny object syndrome”) and therefore, poor performance.
6. Lack of regular review and tracking of what you’re doing within the company and whether it’s working, which leads to suboptimal results

By eradicating these symptoms of non-optimal leadership, through training and development, you motivate, engage and retain your team.
