Your Style is... Black Coffee!
Black Coffee = Delegating Leadership Style
You are where comfort meets intensity.
Your delegating leadership style means you’re happy to step back and let your employees lead the charge… within reason. You assign them tasks with faith they’ll come back with something great.
You’re unlikely to offer more support and guidance than necessary. You have enough responsibilities of your own without micromanaging your team’s every move. Knowing this, you’re careful to hire folks who deserve your trust and give them in-depth training.
Ensure your employees feel valuable by giving them the praise they deserve. On top of that, make a point of showing up at employee functions so everyone knows just how tuned in to your business you truly are.
“If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.” – John Quincy Adams
3 Quick Tips for Transforming Your Leadership
1) Cultivate Self-Awareness
Your ability to lead yourself is a necessary skill for all leaders. Understanding your strengths, weaknesses, and blind spots is crucial for personal growth as a leader. Regularly seek feedback from peers, mentors, and team members, and engage in self-reflection to become more aware of your leadership style and its impact. This self-awareness will help you make more informed decisions, improve your communication, and build stronger relationships with your team.
2) Embrace an Ownership Mindset
Transformative leaders view challenges as opportunities for learning and growth. Encourage innovation and experimentation within your team by fostering an environment where it’s safe to take risks and learn from mistakes. Continuously seek out new knowledge, skills, and perspectives to stay adaptable and responsive to change.
3) Lead with Empathy and Authenticity
In this crazy in person/hybrid/remote work environment we find ourselves in, the importance of trust and genuine connection cannot be overstated. Show empathy by actively listening to your team members, understanding their needs and concerns, and supporting their development. Be authentic in your communication and actions, demonstrating consistency between your words and deeds. This approach will inspire loyalty, build a strong, cohesive team, and drive a culture of collaboration and mutual respect.
