To drive change, leaders inspire those they lead to invest extra time and energy in making a difference for themselves and their organization.
They realize that mastering inspiration requires the synchronization of 3 factors:
- Their people trust that the leader has their back – that he or she understands what motivates and concerns them, is focused on them, and has high, but realistic, expectations of them.
- The leader is perceived as genuine and credible, consistently demonstrating conviction, while being positive, transparent and open to feedback.
- People feel respected and appreciated for their contributions, driven by the leader’s confidence in them and gratitude for their commitment.
