Show Notes:
- The Transformational Leadership Framework consists of three key elements: know thyself, know the other person, and know the goal.
- “Know thyself” means understanding your own strengths, weaknesses, values, and motivations, and it’s crucial for effective leadership—and makes you more trustworthy.
- When you don’t know what unique value you bring to the table, it can be challenging to understand and engage others in a way that taps into their mental, emotional, and motivational energy, which is your job as a leader.
- Understanding the people you work with—and how to work with them—is equally as important.
- If you assume everybody shares the same strengths and striving instincts as you do, effective teamwork can’t happen.
- Similarly, having a clear and shared purpose is essential for achieving the impact or project results you want.
- Assessments like Kolbe, CliftonStrengths®, and Working Genius can make a big difference in how well you understand yourself, show up in your role, and work with others.
- They also help everyone understand which stages of a project they’re good at and enjoy, providing valuable insight into where they fit in within a team or project.
- Recognizing and respecting others’ unique strengths, capabilities, and ways of thinking can improve meetings, work relationships, and overall results.
