We’ve all had experience with two dramatically different types of leaders. The first type, Diminishers, drains intelligence, energy, and capability from the people around them and always needs to be the smartest person in the room. The second type, Multipliers, are leaders who use their intelligence to amplify the smarts and capabilities of the people around them.
The times we currently find ourselves in add stress and anxiety to the role of a leader. Managing virtual teams and facing challenging decisions means that more than ever we need to leverage the full capability of the teams working for us. However, when we should be tapping into their intelligence, it seems easier to just rely on our own and remain in control.
This session will give you an understanding of the core Multipliers concept and how relevant the thinking is in current times. Working remotely seems to unintentionally amplify our diminishing tendencies. How can you amp up Multiplier behaviours?
Learn to be present virtually without micromanaging, make it safe to stretch and sometimes fail, and help people deliver their very best thinking and highest point of contribution to the organisation.
