Welcome
back to the Business Intelligence update, just when you think it is safe to
launch a new project, leadership and communications becomes an issue. Let’s
take a look at leadership, a great business leader must prepare to meet the
challenge with an idea that is worth sharing. The leader must look inward to
discover personal values which must be associated with a personal philosophy to
align with the team. Once the values are aligned, the leader’s true voice will
guide the way by setting an example with a shared vision which fosters pride
for the company. In other words, the team must have a reason to care for the
new project that is being presented.
Excitement
must fuel the imagination of the team as the leader describes the adventure
with passion. Of course the leader is not working in a vacuum, all of the
members of the team are persuaded to look inward, and are given the opportunity
to find a way to make the vision better by challenging the process. Moreover, the
team must be enabled to act through collaboration which builds trust, and
strengthens competence. Of course, the idea is to build a team for the sake of
accountability. With encouragement from the heart, the idea will be appreciated
and the team will stride for excellence in the spirit of community. Nevertheless,
the leader must recognize the contributions of the team, and encourage higher
levels of performance throughout the project.
So,
what makes the leader’s vision clear? Communication; speaking, listening,
writing, and reading effectively. The leader’s Communications skills must be
highly developed to express an idea and promote innovation. It sounds very
simple, however the leader must understand the audience. It is necessary to plan
a message, make it clear, well crafted, the channel must be correct, knowing
the best way to send a message, and learning from feedback are required when
delivering an idea for maximum intent.
In conclusion, the winning Business
Intelligence leader must effectively communicate an idea with the tools of
persuasion, for the purpose of building strong relationships, fueled by
passion. Until next time!
