Senior leadership can be exciting, rewarding and hugely influential. It can also be lonely, complex and, at times, overwhelming.
Many senior leaders discover that the skills which helped them succeed earlier in their careers are not always the skills they need at the top. The challenges become less about managing tasks and more about leading people, culture, strategy and change.
Here are some of the questions we are often asked in the training room.
At Aspire one of our core values is: Allowing people to be.
In management and leadership roles one of the most difficult skills to learn is allowing people to be their best selves.
As the pressure increases so does the tendency for leaders to slip into command and control, to jump headlong into a sea of “constructive criticism”, to hold on tightly and micromanage their staff. In so doing they can inadvertantly limit the learning, growth and diverse talents that can help support innovation and excellence at the time when it is most needed.
Everyone is a genius. But if you judge a fish on its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid. – Albert Einstein
