Today we highlight that leadership means empowering and equipping the people around you to succeed.

We review an unconventional leadership tool – the Skill-Will-Wisdom Matrix. 
This helps any leader ask questions to disrupt the status quo, support personal growth, and equip their team members to with the skills, will, and wisdom to succeed.

We chat about leadership strategies that help you to… 

·      Assess the mindset of person in front of you (whether they're ‘performing’ or not…)

·      Ask great questions to understand what levers they and you need to pull to succeed

·      Support leadership development so that anyone can find their ‘flow’ at work

·      Find win-wins for the business, whole team, and  team member in question

·      Use wisdom vs assumptions to support your team to be resilient by learning effective leadership lessons.

The Questions

And we pose the following questions.

If you are…

1.     A leader who has a struggling team member - where are they on the matrix?

2.     A team member struggling with a leader - how can you use the matrix?

3.     Lacking motivation what do you need more of - skills, will, or wisdom?

 

It starts and ends with 'U'...
Supporting you to lead and to shift the status quo forever by taking one human step in a smarter direction.
