Why Listen to our Teams?

There still seems to be a great detachment between doing and delegating, between deciding and giving responsibility to others to make their decisions, between what is control and inspiration, what are rules and the ability to improvise.

 

It is easy to see that if we have employees of an exceptional level - capable of making decisions as good or better than ours - we can just inspire them, show them the destiny we want, and let them draw the path by themselves, think, create, and decide.

 

For that we just have to be leaders at the inspirational level, show the vision, determine the goals, and let the exceptional employees do the rest and make the day-to-day decisions that lead us to the path of success.

 

In a company it is necessary to know how to listen and discuss openly, regardless of the hierarchical levels where the players are, so that we can ensure that not only the rules and day-to-day management, but also creativity and freedom of expression are part of the company's values. It is essential to ensure that everyone can contribute to the day-to-day running of the organization.

 

For this to happen, everyone must know the company's vision. Every employee, absolutely every employee has to know where the company is going and what the big goals are.

 

Employees must also feel free to voice their opinions, to share their ideas and to contribute to the company's development. With the contribution of everyone's ideas, with the involved collaboration of all employees, it will be easier to reach the destination that has been set.

 

Although each company is a company, it is fundamental that any team leader always guarantees these two sides: to manage and to lead, to have rules, but to stimulate creativity, to control, but at the same time to motivate and to make people grow by themselves and to give their opinions freely.

 

A culture of involvement is fundamental today.

 

“The leadership of a company or a team is exactly about taking the best ideas from the group, developing them with everyone's contribution, and building a better and stronger future”.

 

There is a popular saying that says two heads think better than one. Well, in a company, all heads think. It is in the diversity of opinions and ideas that companies grow. And it is in the healthy discussion that the best projects are built.

 

Leaders need to have extremely capable people around them and to be able to ask them questions until they are able to make a decision.

 

The information we need to make the best choices often comes from other people.

 

“The best leader is the one who gets the machine running and, afterwards, becomes unimportant so that the result appears”

 

As leaders, we don't necessarily have to come up with the answers. We have to know how to manage the information that comes to us. Managers have to listen to everyone and collect the different ideas, but they have to make the final decisions themselves.
