Is Your Company One That’s Making This Common Mistake in Business?
/Is your company one that’s making this common mistake in business?
Often, in an effort to retain its top employees, businesses will promote those team members to managers/directors/leaders.
A better title. More money. Involvement in leadership meetings. On paper, it seems like a great way to retain top people.
But what are you doing for that person once they take on that position?
Does that person know how to navigate a leadership meeting with different personalities/approaches to business?
Is that person ready for the “loneliness” that can come with moving away from their peers and friends, and potentially now having to lead them?
Does that person understand how to create a business plan and then communicate that vision to team members?
Does that person know how to best lead a meeting, and then individually lead each team member based on their unique personality, skill set and goals?
Yes, the bigger title and higher paycheck sends a message initially.
But are you giving that team member the tools to succeed in the position? To love coming to work? To grow?
Investing in your people is one of the best things you can do for your business. We work with companies to identify their up-and-coming leaders and provide them coaching they need (and deserve) to succeed in that role.
The result?
Better performance for the individual. Better performance for the team they lead. Less turnover.
