✈️ While flying to Sydney earlier this week, I had the pleasure of reading - Multipliers: How the best leaders make everyone smarter - by Liz Wiseman, and it was incredibly inspiring! ☀️ The book explores how leaders can either diminish or multiply the intelligence and capability of their teams. It is a powerful reminder that the best leaders aren’t those with all the answers, but those who create an environment where others can shine and contribute their best ideas. 💡 If you haven’t read it yet, I highly recommend it! I am motivated to keep empowering those around me. What strategies do you use to foster growth in your team? #leadership #empowerment #growthmindset #Teamwork

If you're the most important person in the meeting: Speak last. As leaders, even a single word can shift the entire conversation. People might subconsciously adjust their ideas to match what they think you want to hear. Let your team speak freely first. The most junior member can kick things off, followed by others. This allows you to hear diverse viewpoints and make informed decisions based on the collective wisdom of the room. Give your team a platform to share their ideas, then use your voice to guide, not dictate, the direction. Of course, there are nuances to consider. If your team is new or inexperienced, they might feel anxious about speaking up first. In those cases, it's perfectly okay to lead the way with some initial questions or discussion points. However, the goal should still be to minimize your own influence and encourage independent thinking. #Leadership #Teamwork #EffectiveCommunication

Leadership Insight: Accountability and Progress In leadership, accountability is the cornerstone of a high-performing team. It's about setting clear expectations, providing the right tools, and fostering an environment where feedback is constructive and aimed at growth. But equally important is knowing when to pivot. Not every plan will unfold as expected, and that's okay. The ability to assess, adapt, and advance is what keeps a team resilient and competitive. Remember, progress often requires us to let go of the old and embrace the new. Keep your team accountable, but be ready to move forward when necessary. #Leadership #Accountability #Teamwork #Adaptability
