My coaching client told me again and again that one of the best opportunities for coaches is to find and develop their leadership. They say how to develop their leadership skills, how they contribute to the company and how much they feel about themselves.
So, even without the support of the coach, what is the "leadership voice", how can you find it?
To me, based on integrating your values, vision and goals, the voice of leadership is a true exposition. It originated from self-awareness; it combined with meaningful behaviors, developed and deepened, and culminated in lasting contributions and professional satisfaction.
There is no single activity that can fully exploit your leadership voice; however, reflecting and responding to some or all of the following questions can help you define and declare it.
How to use these questions :
These questions are not completely different; therefore you may have similar answers to different questions. This is very good and helpful. Use curiosity and fun to solve these problems. When you answer, it is best to work in a relaxed environment outside of work; in addition, consider using a diary as a response. Unlined journals will encourage you to write or draw or collage your responses. No matter what you do, don't think that there is a "correct" answer to any question.
Ten powerful questions
1. After getting up in the morning, between an alarm clock, a dog, a child and a train, or even a paycheck? What motivates you to work in this company at this time? Is it to be promoted, develop others, solve problems, build community, have fun?
2. What do you represent as a leader? What are the core values of your decision? If you are not sure, think about it when you are very angry about the decisions others make in the work
3. How do you think that inspiring others to do the best thing?
4. How do you believe that change will happen - whether it is personal or organizational?
5. What do you want employees can say to you when you are not around? What do you want your boss, colleagues, and customers to say?
6. Who are you when you are in the best condition?
7. What conditions can make you easily become your best?
8. What kind of attitude/belief will allow you to advance? What attitude/belief hinder you from returning?
9. How do you define success in your career?
10. What nourishes you?
How to use your answers
Find common words, topics, values; then find a useful and creative way to capture them. For example, write a professional mission statement that embodies the nature of what you find - the ideal situation is a short enough memory and something posted on a 3 x 5 card. Or, if you are more intuitive, find or make a picture to symbolize what you find. A client uses a tree and various branches to depict her values and vision.
Talk about what you found with a trusted colleague or friend.
When you are struggling with difficult or difficult business decisions, please refer to your answer.
Use the spelling questions listed above to engage in a meaningful conversation with your staff - whether in a one-on-one development meeting or in a team meeting.
Ask yourself if your actions are consistent with your values. If not, what should you do to align them?
The Benefits of Developing Leadership Sound :
1. Consistently and clearly establish trust and promote interaction when using your voice, as it helps your employees and colleagues understand what they can trust. It also feels good, which leads to better performance, better feelings, and better performance!
2. In the process of organizational change, your leaders can maintain a clear and definitive voice. You become your own anchor, and you can become an anchor for others to feel ethereal under the pressure of change.
3. When you use your own voice to influence opportunities that are useful to the organization and make sense to you, you can move from the victim to the winner.
The 10 issues of investing are as leaders investing in their own updates. By connecting you more clearly with your work, you are creating vibrant goals and enthusiasm.
