Why develop your people?

7/24/2020

0 Comments

 
Colleagues,
 
I originally planned to focus today on some ideas for integrating each form of development into your organization, but I realized that I might not have done a great job “selling” you on why development of personnel is so critical. So, next week I’ll spend one day focusing on each of the five faces of the cube, but today let’s look at why this is critical.
 
Remember that strategic leadership has four components:
  1. Important over urgent
  2. Problems not symptoms
  3. Consistent incremental change
  4. People before paper (or products)
 
Strategic leaders put a priority on developing people. The best way to improve an organization is to help improve the people in the organization. Imagine if everyone in the organization was 10% better at the end of this year. What outcomes would you expect?
  • 10% better outcomes
  • 10% fewer headaches
  • 10% less time putting out urgent fires
  • 10% more time for leaders to invest in strategic action
 
But it doesn’t stop there! People who work in organizations that are focused on helping people grow will be happier, more likely to stay, and will contribute to a positive organizational culture.
 
It’s Friday, so let’s reflect with a simple 5-minute coaching session. I would love to hear your answers to these questions, so please consider replying to this email with your thoughts. 
 
Think about what you have learned this week about the five ways to develop people and how they apply to your organization.
  1. What’s going well?
  2. What did you learn this week that was a surprise or has made you think deeply?
  3. What, if anything, would you like to change?

Do good and be well,

Frederick
