What does it take to cultivate a thriving environment and stay adjacent to empowering individuals in an organization?
Pursuing a shared objective through numbers of individuals to collaboratively work together strikes a common mind as a speculative meaning when it comes to elaborate the term “organization”. Contrary to the reality and tangibility, this term comes with a lot of adversities when it comes to being a part of one.
Amidst the bewilderment for many, despite facing challenges, numerous organizations successfully maintain smooth operations. And that is when questions emerge, “ How can that be achievable?” and “What forms the interconnected link facilitating the execution of seamless operations?”
A response then gets elicited- An efficient LEADER! Led further by another question- “Does the position and the title satisfy the execution?” Well, no! A proactive approach capable of uplifting an organization doesn’t necessarily require an official designation. Affiliation and acceptance are the two main ingredients that contribute to the flavor in the formula of a successful leadership; borne in mind, the boundaries set!
Effective leadership demands a methodical and self- operating approach. It entails the incorporation and removal of diverse elements.
Carrying out actions with a prejudiced perspective leads to an impact on team dynamics detrimentally directly stifling individual initiative within a team. Conversely, an impartial Leader opts for a transparent communication, collaborative approach and crucially, the willingness to listen. Addressing a matter, whether minor or significant, a leader constructs strategic thinking and resolves in a team boldly embracing responsibility during challenges and celebrating triumphs collectively.
A close- minded and autocratic self with micromanagement attitude cannot lead. Attributing blame is not an integral aspect of an effective leadership. It necessitates active response, not mere passive listening; it requires safeguarding, not merely pointing fingers. It calls for timely action, along with empathy and fairness, acknowledging the sensitivity of the issue at hand. It places emphasis on collaboration, functioning in a manner that garners praise and respect, elevating their words to a position of significance. This approach is coupled with the establishment of a cordial environment to enhance productivity.
A leader is within, suppressed; petrified with being pointed at during crucial moments. The audacity is to face, evolve and foster the leader within!
