Whether it’s with a veteran or a newbie, leaders often take the easy path and start assigning work out.
When – what makes the work much more impactful downstream – they ought to be getting their team up to speed on the why of what they’re doing (or reminded of it).
No matter how driven someone is to check an item off their to-do list or appease their boss with a job quickly completed; the drive and passion isn’t nearly as strong as someone who understands the why behind the work they’re doing.
Magic is made when people realize the work they are doing is making an impact larger than themselves.
That’s on the leader to show it, prove it, and remind them of it often.
Stay Positive & Lead By Sharing The Vision
