Authentic leadership is not just about who you are, but what you do.
True leaders lead by their actions and virtues. They invest time and effort considering what is best for the organization’s interests and its future development.
Authentic leadership style involves initiating projects and allowing for immediate feedback from the decision-making team. These actions lead to continuous adjustments in daily operations. By incorporating genuine feedback and making swift adaptations to address problem areas, authentic leaders drive progress and success within the organization.
Effective leaders prioritize deadlines by integrating them into the daily routine of the team. There is a clear focus on what needs to be accomplished each day, tomorrow, and throughout the week. Utilizing simple tracking tools for project elements and assigning responsibilities ensures the project stays on course. One example is as straightforward as a three-ring binder with chapter dividers outlining key project components.
Authentic leadership understands the value of concise 20-minute morning meetings. In these meetings what gets measured gets done. With regular attendance at these meetings team members provide quick progress reports, establish daily priorities, as well as voicing any major concerns. This approach improves efficiency with 30% of time dedicated to discussion while 70% is spent actively engaged in work tasks.
Authentic leadership is more than a concept it is an authentic leadership approach that encourages team growth through effective communication strategies.
