What are the core talents that truly distinguish high-performing leaders from the rest?
Kevin welcomes Barry Conchie and Sarah Dalton to the issue of ineffective leadership. Barry and Sarah explore the essential leadership talents scientifically identified through extensive research involving over 60,000 leaders. They emphasize the importance of selecting leaders based on innate talents rather than just skills or aspirations. The five key talents they highlight are:
Setting Direction - The ability to establish clear goals and a strategic vision that aligns with organizational values.
Harnessing Energy - Motivating and energizing a team towards achieving these goals.
Exerting Influence - Not just persuading others but changing minds through constructive debate and advocacy.
Building Connectivity - Creating strong, meaningful relationships within the organization.
Controlling Traffic - Ensuring efficient execution of plans by managing processes and adapting to changes.
