58% of companies have a widening talent gap for the critical Leadership roles of the future. Such were the findings from Rosalinde Torres’s survey of over 4000 companies. It culminated in her asking…. WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO BE A GOOD LEADER? She distilled her findings to three crucial things that Leaders should be doing/thinking/asking: 1.    Where are you looking to anticipate the next change to your business? You need to be looking around corners and coming up with a plan for the unknown possibilities of tomorrow. 2.    What is your capacity to develop relationships with people who are different to you? Great Leaders understand that diversity is a source of insights AND solutions. 3.    Are you courageous enough to abandon what made you successful so far? Great Leaders dare to be different. You need to build emotional stamina to cope when people tell you that your ideas are wrong. Watch the full TED talk. It’s hard to argue with. https://lnkd.in/eeiHC97F

Persevere ✨️ Extraordinary leaders engage each of their team members so that the associate can be the best that he or she can possibly be within any given moment, at any given time. The valued, motivated, and inspired team, does more than what is expected, without having to be ask. Moreover, the associates love what they do and have fun in the process ✨️ #peoplefirst #leadershipdevelopment #winwin #leadershipexcellence #personaldevelopment #culturetransformation #paradigmshift #mindsetiseverything #leadershipskills #selfawarenessiskey #success https://lnkd.in/gdrMSb9Z

Understanding The Who helps to grasp The Why. Today's Motivation from Dr. David Burkus: "People want to do work that matters, and they want to work for leaders who tell them they matter...Help them find the answer to... 'Who is served by the work you do?'" #Who #workwithpurpose #keeplearningkeepgrowing

Trust is like a muscle. The more you use it, the stronger it gets. And the stronger your trust muscle, the better your team will perform. In his talk "Performance vs Trust", Simon Sinek argues that trust is more important than performance when it comes to building high-performing teams. He cites the example of the Navy SEALs, who are some of the most highly trained and skilled warriors in the world. But even more important than their skills is their trust in each other. Without trust, they would not be able to operate effectively as a team. https://lnkd.in/d-AHHy4r

In a chart with Performance vs Trust, where do you place yourself? We talk a lot about work-related performance, but should we start talking more about work-related trust? How much trust do you place in your colleagues? Watch this short and spot-on video from a talk about this subject. #abetterworkplace

Jhon C Maxwell Successful leaders understand the balance between leading with their head and leading with their heart. You cannot take your people to places you haven’t been to yourself, but you also have to be aware of what your people need in order to succeed!

A quick but powerful case study on the value of trust from Simon Sinek

Leadership is daily process

‘Great leaders are courageous enough to abandon the past.' This means: - Letting go of outdated practices and mindsets - Embracing new ideas and perspectives - Being willing to take calculated risks - Fostering a culture of experimentation and learning Torres' insights remind us that leadership is not about clinging to what's familiar but about having the courage to forge new paths.

The top three things it takes to be a great leader - number three takes gumption. What makes a great leader today? Many of us imagine a superhero figure commanding and protecting followers, but that image is outdated. In her groundbreaking TED Talk, Roselinde Torres reveals that traditional development methods aren't preparing leaders for today's challenges. In her study of over 4,000 global companies, she found that 58% face significant talent gaps in leadership despite extensive training programs. She identified three key traits of successful 21st-century leaders: 1. They Anticipate Change: Great leaders look ahead. They actively seek insights from diverse sources and prepare for potential disruptions. They are proactive, not reactive, shaping the future instead of merely responding to it. 2. They Have Diverse Networks: Effective leaders cultivate diverse relationships, bridging differences in background, function, and perspective. This diversity enhances their ability to identify patterns and develop innovative solutions. 3. They Have the Courage to Innovate: Successful leaders are willing to abandon past practices. They embrace risk and foster the emotional resilience to withstand criticism, often finding support from unconventional allies. These traits distinguish the leaders who thrive from those who struggle. They prepare not just for today but also for tomorrow's unknown challenges.
