Conversations: The Most Important Leadership Tool
Let’s start with one radical idea…
The only tool a leader really needs to build high-performing teams is communication.
Honestly, all good leadership comes down to communication.
Today’s leaders achieve far more employee engagement and credibility when they take part in genuine conversation with people at work — either with those who work for them or with them.
A conversation, at its core, is a frank exchange of ideas and information with an implicit or explicit agenda.
Smart leaders engage with employees in a way that resembles an ordinary person-to-person conversation rather than on a series of commands or a one-way top-down approach. This hierarchical system is no longer useful or even realistic.
Conversations need to be less memos, emails and publications, and more… human.
