I was reading an article on a medical website yesterday, and I was pleasantly surprised about the fact that Doctors, Physicians and Practice Managers are discussing 'leadership issues' in their Medical Practices.
These 4 leadership qualities are from a study of 600,000 healthcare professionals over an 18 year period in the United Kingdom.
Sit back, take a DEEP breath ask yourself (as you read them)... whether you 'fully embrace' all four of these qualities?
1. Pay attention: Leaders listen to ALL employees with EQUAL FASCINATION.
2. Understand: Listen to employees and LEARN about the workplace CHALLENGES they face.
3. Empathize: Learn WHAT IT FEELS LIKE to be in your employees' shoes.
4. Help: REMOVE OBSTACLES by ensuring that your employees have proper training, staffing and equipment.
It's the 101 of human nature... people need to be heard, valued, recognised and nurtured / helped.
What are you doing to ensure that your leadership style positively impacts your employees? We need to find ways to ensure that employees are less prone to burnout!
