When setting measurables for yourself, your team or your organisation, it is more beneficial to measure what is most important, rather than what is easiest to measure. Avoid falling into the trap of measuring what is not useful, simply for the sake of collating numbers. For leaders / managers, this can lead onto micromanagement, which itself may cause high levels of resistance, disengagement, wasted time, and under-performance (the opposite purpose of setting measurables). Measure what is most important(beneficial), not what is easiest to measure. Keep #RaisingYourGame #Leadership #management

Moving from an individual contributor to a leader means using a new set of skills in order to be successful. One of the best predictors of a leader's success is whether or not they're able to manage the transition from contributing directly to the work, to enabling and growing the people who are responsible for doing the work. #iopsych #simonsinek #management #leadership #manager

Leaders don’t just delegate to walk away. Even if they must, they must ensure they put appropriate structures in place to monitor and foster progress. Not only that, they stay updated and informed with the happenings. They call meetings from time to time with major heads and executive council to identify obstacles, brainstorm and produce corporate ideas on the way forward. #HeroesNationConsulting #Executive #Career #Leadership #Management #Training #Professional #Certifications #Business #Growth #Strategy #Consultation www.heroesnationtgn.org
