HOW CEOs BECOME EVEN BETTER

Imagine a day in your leadership life:

⪢ With the opportunity to have important conversations with members of your team quickly, so that they can get on with their important work and leave you to get on with yours.

⪢ Where you have conversations with your team members, and you do not inherit their challenges.

⪢ Where your team members solve their own challenges.

⪢ Spent in your zone of genius, working on the things that matter in your role, rather than being sucked into the detail of the people around you.

⪢ Where you can support the people in your team without giving them answers to all their questions.

⪢ Where you do not need to be the expert in everything.

⪢ Where you do not need to solve all the problems.

⪢ Where you do not need to know the answer right now.

⪢ Where you create development moments for your team members throughout the day.

⪢ Full of ask, not tell.

⪢ Where you enable the people around you.

⪢ Where you help your people to work and play in their own strengths.

⪢ Where you invite people to contribute to important conversations.

⪢ Where you make positive progress with change and transformation.

⪢ Where you influence your leader in a constructive way, without telling them what to do.

⪢ Where you are clear on the important things you want to accomplish, and you have the time to complete them.

⪢ Full of options and opportunities for the future.

⪢ With space to plan.

⪢ With space to think.

⪢ When you show up at your best.

⪢ Where you build the capability of the people around you.

⪢ Where you develop accountability in the people around you.

⪢ When you do not need to take ownership of everything.

⪢ Where you facilitate a constructive way through conflict.

⪢ When rather than coming to ask for your direction and guidance, your people come with not only the challenge, they come with the recommended solution, after identifying and examining the options.

⪢ Where you are doing outstanding listening and creating space for other people’s voices to be heard.

⪢ Where you are influencing by asking the right questions.

⪢ Where you are activating the people around you in a common purpose.

Imagine integrating a coaching approach into your leadership.
