博客來In Leadership in 5G, Dr. Howard Fero, ＂The Leadership Doc,＂ puts his 20+ years of leadership development expertise into a simple formula to help both aspiring and experienced leaders upskill their careers. The 5Gs provide you and your team with the tools to propel yourselves, your teams, and your organizations to success.
Get Up. This G is about you. How well do you really know yourself? Do you know your leadership style? Have you mastered self-management? Discovering your purpose and the things you are passionate about are critical to knowing who you are as a leader. Executing effectively as a leader means knowing how to set goals and achieve them, manage your time, and lead yourself.
Get Out There. This G is about how you show up amongst the people you lead. How do you build trust? How do you communicate? Who needs to know what, when, and why? It involves strategically involving other people in your personal growth journey and being a leader who is both seen and heard, not leading from afar.
Get to Know Your People. Getting to know your people is just how it sounds: It’s about understanding who is on your team and what makes them tick. People love to be known, and when they feel understood, they naturally want to work harder. When you know your people, you can provide effective feedback in the best-received style. An organizational culture where people are known is one where they can thrive.
Give Them What They Need. Once you know your people, you better know how to equip them for success. A person’s needs transcend their job training; each person has varying priorities, personalities, goals, strengths, and weaknesses. Building an environment and a role tailored to each person’s unique needs profoundly impacts retention and employee satisfaction.
Get Out of the Way! Many leaders love to be involved in the details but choose the wrong details to involve themselves with. If you’ve hired the right people, gotten to know them, and given them what they need, the organization should be equipped to run like a well-oiled machine. This frees you up to focus on the bigger-picture aspects of mission, vision, and long-term success.
