In my brief career, I have had the opportunity to work under different types of managers. A good manager is someone who manages people and gets their work done. But have you ever considered becoming a great leader 🤴🏻?
If this is the case, then read on for some useful hints to help you transform 😃!
Personal well-being
They genuinely care about our well-being. They lend a hand 💪whenever and in whatever way they can, whether it's for physical or mental health issues, or any other personal or financial problems. They recognize that even the smallest relief from your personal strain can improve your comfort, which can have a substantial impact on your professional productivity.
Building Trust
Trust is one of the most difficult things to gain from a person. It builds over time. Honesty is the most important aspect of establishing trust 🤞. They should always be honest and open with you about themselves, their team, and the company. If the leader has earned the employees' trust, the crew will simply follow in their footsteps.
Make us feel accountable
They will not impeach us 😇 for our bad performance or other concerns. Rather, they will raise awareness of the issue and hold us accountable. They help us comprehend the underlying problem and make us not repeat it.
Pros-Cons analysis
They clearly understand the pros 👍 and cons 👎 of each team member and provide feedback. They rarely criticize or point out flaws that bring you down. Even when you perform poorly and fall short of the expected standard, they focus on the positive aspects of your situation and make advice on how to improve the downsides.
Earns Respect
They are the ones who continually work hard, inspire others, and gain respect 🙇. They may not always appreciate us in front of the camera, but they constantly support us behind the scenes, particularly when it comes to other teams and management.
Loves to Uplift People
They enjoy elevating or uplifting 🚀 those around them, and they provide all of their subordinates with appropriate feedback. They assist us in bringing out the best in us and making us feel like a better version of ourselves.
Consistent Learner
They may be skilled in technical or managerial areas, but they will not be able to aid the team in the long run unless and until they improve themselves. They are aware of this, and as a result, they are constantly working 🚧 to expand their knowledge in a variety of areas.
Business goals vs. Employee ambitions
One of the hardest challenges to accomplish in today's fast-paced IT business is balancing the needs of the organization with the goals of the employees. Strong leaders, on the other hand, are more likely to strike 🎯 a reasonable compromise between both.
Accepts blame and distributes credit
When the team performs well, they applaud the team and its members 👏. Nevertheless, when a problem arises, they accept full responsibility and holds them accountable.
Sow the seeds
Plant the idea 🌱 in our heads that when we are in charge, we want to emulate them. We wish to lead by example, as they did. The energy of outstanding leaders is contagious, and it provokes us to think in a similar fashion. We want to sow the same seeds in our juniors so that they can blossom into exceptional leaders.
⏩ Finally, they are the ones who are always encouraging, motivating, and never fail to inspire us 🏆 !
