16
Q

Problem with standards

A

Not a method for leading and coaching

leadership is not about applying a standard, by about holding people accountable for the expectation behind the standard, by helping to connect the dots between the standard and the expectation for the employee

We should manage by connecting people to the expectation

Managing to the rules and standards will create mindless rule-following

leading by expectations we help people understand the purpose behind what they do, and who we want to have as a team

17
Q

Leadership compass

A

Our emotions

Vital to have a good sense of how we feel

When we feel badly it influences how we manage people

Your emotions can let you know what direction you are pointing yourself and how you are working with people everyday

We need to turn in by asking:
- How do I feel?
- is this productive?
- How is that influencing those around me?
-
18
Q

How to identify the performance gap

A

Skillset gap

Does my employee not know what to do, but is willing to learn?

look for evidence that employee have achieved goal before, if no evidence it may be a skill set gap

MIndset

Does my employee know what to do, but doesn’t want to?

Evidence shows past performance but not now

Mindset + Skillset

Does my employee not know what to do, and have no interest in learning? -Skill and mindset Gap

Need to address, mindset first, because mindset blocks the ability to learn
