Look for 6 Key Behaviors – What it takes to lead others

TIP of the week comes from MARCEL SCHWANTES, FOUNDER AND CHIEF HUMAN OFFICER, LEADERSHIP FROM THE CORE. He explains that “Organizations cannot retain great employees without developing leaders with the skills to inspire them”.

In his article How Can You Be Sure Someone Has What It Takes to Lead Others? Look for 6 Key Behaviors. Do you allow your employees to help determine where the team is headed?  Marcel examines leadership, and what it takes to lead others. He provides readers with 6 key behaviors to look for.  When dealing with an organization’s most appreciable asset (people), Marcel notes the importance of identifying and developing high-performing employees.  Business leaders need to understand how employees feel, and then determine a good strategy to navigate the demands of the future.

Small to large business leaders need to be able to craft the right goals and set obtainable expectations in reaching those goals.

Along with his 6 key behaviors, he coaches others to do self-assessments, and work on soft skills. While building your own self-assessments you might ask yourself ” Do you provide the support and resources needed to help workers meet their goals?”

Do you or your leaders have what it takes to bring out the best in your employees?
