We all aspire to be great, don’t we?
According to the book ‘Outliers’ written by Malcolm Gladwell, he insisted that the “magic number of greatness” was 10,000 hours. This was implying that in order for someone to fully be great in their area of expertise, it would require them to first complete 10,000 hours of trial, error, practice, and growth. However, in today’s busy world, not many are able to carve out all this extra time to achieve this greatness.
The Secret to Greatness
The level of greatness that a company achieves stems from the impact that a leader has on its company and employees. The company culture of a business is super impactful on how employees will perform. That’s why at Minetum, we have the Organizational Development Program, which helps transform company culture and the development of a company. This program ranges anywhere from one to six months and will help you change your business from its current state to a future state that fully aligns the organization with the company’s objectives and strategies. This program will provide you with a highly effective framework to improve efficiency and increase productivity within your workplace.
Forbes magazine has compiled a list of 4 different things leaders should focus on in order to create and sustain great organizational culture:
- Debrief After an important milestone or setback a company endures, it’s important that input from the entire team is collected and reviewed. Doing so allows all members to recognize that their contributions to the company help contribute to the company’s greatness.
- Don’t Punish Mistakes Although sometimes mistakes can be a setback for your business, understanding your employee’s mistakes are a part of their growing and learning process. Punishing someone for a mistake they’ve made will only set them back further.
- Take Responsibility for Your Team It’s important as a leader that you take accountability for your team, including all the successes and failures. When you hold yourself accountable, that can help motivate you better to lead your employees more efficiently.
- Never Underestimate the Power of your Team Making sure your team members are all working at their full potential will help ensure greatness for your company.
