Three Steps for Leaders to Build a Culture of Feedback
There is so much we could learn from each other, if only we could say it. If you want to increase the ability in your organization for your people to share their valuable perspectives, there are three steps you can take starting today.
How to Identify Your Team’s Values (it’s not what you think)
Leaders, if you're planning to do a values exercise with your team, you'll get the most accurate answer to the question "what are our values?" not by making a lofty list of what the team might value in a utopian workplace, but by looking at actual recent team behavior.
Establishing a New Routine with your Team
Establishing a new routine with your team can be tricky. They might wonder what you have under your sleeve when all you're trying to do is be a more conscientious leader.
Establishing Something New in Your Routine
How can take something that you'd like to accomplish on a regular basis and systematize it so that it's more likely to become established and integrated?
What To Do When You’ve Gotten Off Track
Cycles are part of the natural order of things. We can be in the groove when our work and rituals, and then we can feel out of sync. So sometimes, the solution to something not working is to simply enter into a new phase of the cycle.
What People Managers Need to know
Often people managers who got to where they are thanks to their technical proficiency have received little to no training on managing people. CHART is an acronym that will help new or untrained people managers understand what they need to know.
Inclusion, Introduced
Inclusion is the sincere and explicit invitation to join.
You can see, in the definition alone, the proactive nature of valuing inclusion. I picture extending a hand, metaphorically speaking.
Equity, Elucidated
At the heart of equity lies fairness. Having equity among a group means everyone in that group has what they need to have a fair chance at the same opportunities.
Diversity, Defined
Diversity refers to the range of human differences - in any and all human differences.
