In most business realities today, when an opportunity presents itself for a manager to add a new complimentary player to a team, this opportunity is most often fumbled.
The newly acquired player to the existing team is not objectively acquired as a asset that can truly COMPLIMENT and add to the team's strengths, by filling an existing weakness. Many times, the new player is simply a different shade of what already exists.
All leaders operate, more often than not, from three key answers. It is the sum whole of all three answers, that affords a leader their direction, and that allows them to stay grounded. This is what gives them a sense of centeredness and never-ending passion, both of which others gravitate towards for even greater leadership!
Unlocking the door to one's passion points has a dramatic effect of becoming a never-ending waterfall, from which one gains a flow of energy.
It is from this flow of energy, which serves as the core source of ones’ energy creators, that one will be able to sustain constant motivation.
As a leader, it is you who serves as that well, from which the team comes for nurture and substance!
One of the traps which management has evolved into over past decades is to believe that all people are motivated in the same manner.
In actuality, surveys reveal that what may be a motivator to one individual may in fact be a de-motivator to another.
There exists a direct and very defined connection between one’s personal managerial-leadership style with others and one’s age or generational segmentation.
The abilities to fluidly connect, understand, respect (but not necessarily agree or disagree!), and motivate the generational segmentations in a business organization, will be the differentiators between greatness and significance.
