How well is your management team performing?

How well is your management team performing?

If you as a management team aren’t able to interact in a genuine and open way, don’t expect your employees to do so.

This year I guided several companies in employee engagement. In this and following
blog posts I’ll share you my insights.

If you want to avoid that the results of your engagement surveys end up as useless data, start working on this:

Blog 1: Define engagement in an holistic way
Blog 2: Commit emotionally as a management team
This blog: A good management team = TRUST

A good
management team
=
TRUST

You can’t want your organization to be solid and engaging if your management team isn’t.

If you don’t feel your management team is a dream team, a team you are proud to be part of, a team that is committed and mission driven, don’t expect the people in your company to feel part of such an organization.

  • – Are there tensions within the management team?
  • – Are there “everybody – knows – it – but – nobody – dares – to – speak – about -it” moments?
  • – Are there small irritations?
  • – Are there conversations you avoid?
  • – Are there things you’d like to see different?

If you don’t get the “irritations/allergies/disappointments” out in the open within your team, they will surely affect your employees. People sense these things from a mile away. You can’t fool them by pretending.

It’s of the highest importance that you find a way to communicate about these tensions in a respectful way. Get your ego, your pride or your fears out of the way and talk. From human to human.

Remember if you don’t like and trust each other, if you do not collaborate well as a management team, don’t expect your people to do so.

Are you prepared to take risks to gain trust within your management team?

I put the mission of Natural Leadership –  finding self – realization and the freedom to unlock your full potential – to work by doing two things:

  • First helping leaders in strengthening their personal leadership.
