Her Leadership Philosophy: Right People, In the Right Positions, Doing the Right Things
Michael believes that effective leadership hinges on ensuring that you have the right people in the right positions, doing the right things. The most critical element is always having the right people. Leaders must constantly evaluate both themselves and their teams to achieve this alignment.
Michael asks, “How do you know if it’s you, or if it’s them?
Give yourself the mirror test.
Reflect on every single member of your team, evaluate their strengths in their positions, and then to review any perceived weaknesses by asking yourself the following questions:
1. Has this person been thoroughly trained?
2. Is their weakness because of lack of talent, or lack of training?
3. If I improve their training, will they be successful?”
Continuous Learning and Development.
Seeing the need for ongoing development beyond company-organized conferences and trainings, Michael founded the Enlightened Workplace community.
