| Developing PMS |
Husk is working with Optima on developing a performance management system. A few days ago, a group of Husk employees tried to define how leadership should be measured and evaluated. I found this list fascinating especially given all that we've read about leadership through the Acumen Fellowship curriculum. They defined a leader as someone that
- Can implement change
- Makes strategic decisions
- Motivates and empowers employees
- Has an ownership attitude
- Is aligned with code of ethics and values
- Is accessible to subordinates
- Creates co-operation among team members and across teams
- Is accepted as a leader
Perhaps the most critical and telling aspect about being a leader is judging one's acceptance. The danger lies in confusing the varying degrees and reasons for "acceptance". Soliciting feedback & the ability to reflect become integral to filling the big shoes.
