🌟 Investing in Your Direct Reports: A Manager’s Responsibility 🌟 As a manager, your role extends beyond overseeing tasks and deadlines. It’s about nurturing talent, fostering growth, and creating a positive work environment. Here’s why investing in your direct reports is essential: 1. Professional Development: When you invest time and effort in your team’s development, you empower them to reach their full potential. Provide opportunities for skill-building, mentorship, and continuous learning. Remember, their success reflects your leadership. 2. Employee Engagement: Engaged employees are more productive, committed, and loyal. By investing in their growth, you demonstrate that you value their contributions. Regular feedback, coaching, and career discussions go a long way. 3. Retention and Succession Planning: High-performing teams are built on strong foundations. When you invest in your direct reports, you reduce turnover and create a pipeline of future leaders. Your investment today pays dividends tomorrow. Remember, investing in people isn’t just about the bottom line—it’s about building a thriving workplace where everyone can flourish. 🌱💡 #Leadership #Management #EmployeeDevelopment

If you’re looking to enhance your career in any way, you should be paying attention to executive presence. 💥   Here’s 3 quick ways you can begin enhancing yours: ✅Become a better listener ---- Engage in meetings and give your full attention and focus. Practice active listening by summarizing or paraphrasing back what you heard. ✅Be clear and concise ---- Consider the ‘why’ behind your message to ensure you are communicating with purpose. Use bullets in email messages instead of paragraphs. When sharing your thoughts, narrow it down to two key points you want to make.   ✅Feedback and Self-Reflection -----Seek feedback from peers and leaders. Find a mentor. Take time for honest self-reflection.   In short, executive presence is about how others perceive and experience you. Being perceived as leadership material is crucial if you want to be promoted into leadership positions – and just like any skill, your executive presence improves the more you practice!     Thank you Elizabeth Exline for a fun conversation on this topic and for weaving our winding conversation into a clear and concise article! #executivepresence #careertips

I want to correct what I see as a misconception: People strategy doesn't support business strategy. It's a key part of it. Therefore, the Head of People or CHRO must be in the room when a company develops its business strategy. Culture is part of a business strategy, too. We develop this misconception when we see strategy and execution of that strategy as separate. How we execute strategy should be part of business strategy. There's no such thing as a great strategy and poor execution. A strategy without a good execution plan is a bad strategy. Likewise, a business strategy that doesn't consider the people side of business is a bad strategy. Private equity firms have learned that one of their biggest challenges to value creation is poor leadership and talent in the business. They've learned that the people side can make or break a business. So, why do we, as HR or Talent leaders, see our roles as merely support or enablement? To play a critical role in the business, we have to be strategic and have strong business acumen. We have to be able to put ourselves in the shoes of the CEO and understand how all the parts fit together. Not every leader in HR and Talent can do this, and too often, people leaders are perceived as unable to do this. That's on us not to demand a seat at the table but to earn it. I'll say people aren't enablers of strategy. They are critical components of a company's strategy. HR and Talent leaders are business leaders who contribute their expertise in the people side of the business to shape strategy and facilitate the people side as a critical competitive advantage.
