🌟 Just finished reading an eye-opening article on navigating the most common leadership challenges at every level. The pressures that come with leadership roles are often universal, yet they vary significantly depending on the stage of one's leadership journey. 👉 Frontline Leaders: Embracing the transition from a technical expert to a managerial leader is a daunting challenge. The pressure to balance technical expertise with leadership responsibilities is real and often overlooked. 👉 Senior Leaders: Being highly visible, managing complex problems, and navigating office politics are just a few of the unique challenges faced by senior leaders. The pressure to build and lead a high-performing team while dealing with increased ambiguity is immense. 👉 Mid-level Leaders: Ah, the meat in the sandwich! The struggle to manage pressure from both above and below, make tough decisions, and lack access to information and support is real. It's the stage where leadership capability and confidence are truly forged. Regardless of the level, these challenges are a testament to the tenacity and resilience required to thrive in leadership. The article also provides valuable insights and episodes from the No Bullsh!t Leadership podcast to help leaders at every level overcome these challenges and thrive. Share your observations and experiences - what challenges have you encountered in your leadership journey? https://lnkd.in/gssciPaz

In my free time I immerse myself in leadership nuances through reading, listening podcasts, and with training. There is consensus on the fact that while managers might excel at organizing processes, leaders inspire growth and navigate uncertainty with empathy. While managers might be focused on power dynamics, leaders promote career growth of their own people, specially achievers who get the job done. In many organizations, this distinction blurs, resulting in a proliferation of managers lacking true leadership qualities. Regardless of diversity, a good manager doesn't always equate to a good leader, and vice versa. However, in my experience, if I do find one strong lead and manager, it is likely a diverse leader - in most cases a young female lead who is aware of their influence and mentors their team members. There is a great misconception that managerial experience equals leadership. Leadership isn't just about authority; it's about human values in action, inspiration, and continuous learning. Management experience alone doesn't guarantee good leadership. Effective leadership transcends titles, and neglecting leadership development weakens even the strongest native leaders. My core belief is that it is crucial to empower those demonstrating leadership and nurture growth within teams. Are your organizations fostering environments where true leaders thrive? How would you react to an environment that does not promote your own leadership development? How can an organization foster such environments even in uncertain times? I am thinking leadership frameworks like VUCA-BANI, T-shaped leadership, and Simon Sinek's renowned ted talks might be useful for this. However, feel free to share any other book/podcast on leadership you might recommend! #Leadership #LeadershipMindset #LeadershipDevelopment #EffectiveLeadership #GlobalLeadership

Have you got a performance problem in your company? I have heard these words so many times. Stop focusing on performance and start focusing on people. Did you know that human centric leaders are 2.5 times more likely to drive high performance? Human Centric Leadership isn't about creating a set of values that you ignore. It's about living those values every single day. Let's take trust and honesty; common values I see in organizations today. One VP told me how his company claims to have these values but doesn't live them. "The CEO started doing all company meetings, where anyone could ask him anything. The problem was that if employees asked uncomfortable questions he shut them down. Then we started to see questions being filtered. by the communications department, so the CEO always looked good. These meetings could have been a brilliant way to be honest and build trust, but the unwillingness to acknowledge problem areas had the opposite result." You cannot make people be the way YOU want them to be. Build a company that thrives through human centric leadership. #humancentricleadership #CEO #CHRO 🔔 Click the bell for regularly insights on leadership: Monday - The business impact of human centric leadership.

Glad to catch him for some sembang-sembang kopi! We exchange ideas on the things that in trend nowadays. What catches me most is how an impactful leadership can be practice to harness a positive feedback to the management. This practice are to encourage them to be supportive group of people to appreciate efforts from their team and their subordinates. Here are some realistic steps that we can take: 🌞To show the benefits of good leadership through your own work. When you achieve positive outcomes by applying effective leadership practices, don't forget to highlight these successes. 🌞Try to gather data and research that supports the correlations between good leadership practices and positive business outcomes. 🌞Find allies within the organization who also value impactful leadership. 🌞You may want to use surveys and feedback to highlight areas where leadership practices could improve. 🌞We can also try to suggest small-scale pilot programs to test new leadership practices and measure their impact. 🌞Identify and showcase best practices from within the organization or from industry leaders. 🌞Encourage an open dialogue session with top management about the importance of leadership development. 🌞Understand that cultural change takes time and consistent effort. These are some of the outcome that we can try to foster more positive and productive workplace. Maybe after this boleh buat podcast on impactful leadership skills - realistically 😃
