whether your boss an executive or leader
or whatever you call yourself our job is
to find ways to influence the people
that we’re leading so today I’m gonna
give you three tips on how to do a
better job leading your folks look
number one I think sometimes we get so
caught up with the business numbers
quarterly calls conference calls all
this reporting that we have to do that
we forget to sit down and ask our
peoples stories meaning who were you in
high school did you play sports do you
like art are you a math guy history tell
me about your mom dad upbringing brother
sister girlfriend boyfriend husband wife
kids sports teams what do you follow
with this get to know them because the
more I ask him formation the more I get
to know the people I’m working with
month one it shows I care about – I
don’t know how to lead them you learn
how to lead them we learn how to move
people better the more access to
information you and I have number two
number two is time being and what I mean
by timing is the following sometimes you
could give a message to John and it’s a
very effective you get the best out of
John but the same message you give to
Bob it doesn’t work why it’s because of
timing there’s a time to love there’s
time to expect a lot there’s time to
leave somebody alone there’s time for
somebody let’s something to allow
somebody else to call that personality
there’s the time to encourage them
there’s a time to pick them up there’s a
time to say can you come to my office I
got to talk to you
there’s a time to write up there’s a
time to sit down and say listen this
wasn’t good constructive criticism but
it’s a timing issue when you’re leading
your folks and and a lot of times timing
is what’s often not the message not the
delivery timing of the message you’re
given to the individual you’re leading
and number three you’ll tell a person
you’ll tell a person I expect you to do
ABC but you don’t follow through on the
accountability if you don’t follow
through on the accountability the next
time when you say I expect you to do ABC
they don’t believe you anymore because
you never follow through on the
accountability so when you expect be
sure to follow through on what you expect them to get done
