4 KEYS OF PRESENT LEADERSHIP

 

PEXELS -August de Richelieu

Global megatrends like globalization and digitalization have increased the pace, size, and interconnection of our globe. To address these complexity, organizations today require a new breed of leaders.

COMMUNICATE

You may have an outstanding vision for the personnel you manage as a leader. However, if you are unable to properly explain your vision, you will be unable to motivate those who work for you. Nowadays, effective communication entails more than just speaking and writing clearly. It is also about learning how to incorporate new forms of communication into the organization's DNA, such as social media and online collaboration tools.

INSPIRATIONAL LEADERS

Today's inspirational leaders inspire their staff to challenge themselves for a bigger cause - a vision - rather than by virtue of their position. Authors Jim Collins and Jerry Porras revealed in their book "Built To Last" that innovative organizations gave special attention to building exceptional cultures and adhering to a philosophy that transcended the chase of profits. As a 21st-century leader, you should endeavor to link your employees' objectives with your company's mission. Begin by listening to your workers' objectives and establishing a genuine work culture in your organization

VUCA ENVIRONMENT

Leaders today are expected to flourish in circumstances that are volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous (VUCA). Stakeholder connections and processes within and outside of organizations have grown more fluid and unpredictable. To survive in the VUCA era, you must be constantly aware of the shifting trends around you and prepare your plans ahead of time in order to be adaptable and nimble. Do not be scared to take planned and informed risks. Create a collaborative work environment with multidisciplinary teams to address difficulties that may necessitate creativity and innovation.

STAY GROUNDED

Do not lose sight of what is most important while you embrace the VUCA conditions around you. No matter how successful you become, remember that it was not possible for you to succeed on your own. Maintain and strengthen your ties with your staff. In all of your encounters with coworkers, cultivate the fundamental qualities of trust, compassion, and humility.
