Presence and Understanding

I believe one powerful tool that an engaged leader has to develop others is presence and understanding. A humble admittance that while some difficulties may be irrational, they can be understood and mastered together is a great gift of hope and courage to a teammate. It is the difference between an up-front talking head and the engaged developer of talent. The results can be truly remarkable.

Being present and understanding will not solve every leadership development issue, and sometimes people might not be capable of growth in an area that it is required. But it is worth the effort for what it produces in people and the culture of the organization to employ this approach.

It can be a game changer.

Which style of leadership comes most natural to you?
