In the busyness of daily responsibilities, it’s easy to overlook the very people whom you’re called to lead and care for.
However, when this happens, you begin to lose your team. They begin to disengage and mentally check out. They begin to feel frustrated and devalued. They begin to underperform rather than going the extra mile to accomplish goals.
The reality is that valued people become more valuable to any team or organization. When people know their leaders care about them, they are more likely to perform at higher levels and work with more energy and enthusiasm.
If this is the case, how can you express more value? Consider the following:
1 – Ask them how they’re doing personally.
2 – Pay attention to their attitudes and overall performance.
3 – Schedule time to invest in their growth and answer their questions.
4 – Make people a priority each day when you get to work.
Showing you value people isn’t as difficult as you may think. It starts by paying attention to those you lead, addressing concerns you see or hear, and investing your valuable time in them.
Yes, you have important tasks to accomplish in your role, but as a leader, there is no greater task than caring for your people. A team that feels valued performs at levels most leaders only dream about.
Imagine your followers not just hoping they are cared for, but truly knowing it.
Imagine an organizational culture that attracts high-quality people because they want to work where they are valued.
Imagine being the kind of leader that people love to follow each day because they know they matter.
This doesn’t have to be a dream. It can be your reality!
In my new book, The Magnetic Leader, I teach the 18 Essential Actions of leaders people love to follow. But reading a book often isn’t enough. Getting training, having a supportive peer community, and receiving the personal coaching you need are key elements that will take your leadership to new heights.
That’s why I created the Magnetic Leadership Community. If you are a leader who wants to attract quality team members and keep them engaged, this is your opportunity to join a peer community of like-minded business owners and executives who are committed to their personal growth.
