Leadership in Times of Uncertainty and Turmoil

Leadership in Times of Uncertainty and Turmoil

As a leader have you asked yourself “Am I thinking inward”? How do I keep my company and employees from detaching over hard concerns like global supply chains and logistics, political instability and conflicts, climate, inequality issues, and the economy in general? ?It can feel like a daunting task with the boundaries set too wide.?

There is good news. It starts with a journey, an inward one.? It involves allowing others to see your human side.? Yes, just being real.

Tip of the week comes from SATYEN RAJA, CEO & Founder, of Warrior Sage Trainings.? In his article Here's What Leaders Must Do to Truly Support Their Teams in Times of Uncertainty and Turmoil he describes what it means to go inward, and how to use that inward connection to better support and lead your people effectively. ?

“The complexities of the world around us affect us even in our working environments”.? ?"People do not detach from their worries when they show up to work" ~Raja

?Raja emphasizes the importance of internal discovery, one that leads to empowering others, while being both personal and real. ?He brings up a good point- about the journey; and how organizational goals are often accomplished by the cumulative inclusivity of those unique individuals who work for us. You accomplish those hard goals by promoting engagement; and motivating others toward continued success.

"It starts with meeting people where they are".?

Leadership in hard times requires a level of confidence, courage, openness, and a vision that is clear and gives hope. Raja encourages Leaders to pull people upward with them, and to help guide them to better use their creativity and potential, "rooted in purpose". ?Raja refers to inner work in an article by Alexi Robichaux CEO and co-founder of BetterUp, which frames the idea that nurturing your inner work –is the most essential part of your job. ?

There are tough times ahead, but if you are real, humble, focused on your inner work, and provide truthful communication, you will inspire others to do so as well.

"Admit what you don't know. Ask for help. Show your humanity".

An inspirational and timely read, ?Raja speaks to the humanity in us all.? I encourage you to share this article with your executive and managerial teams.? Courageous leadership is an important journey of discovery.? But worth the adventure.?

I’d like to know when the certain and calm times are/were. Uncertainty and turmoil are the everyday.
