@letsjuststartpodcast: Hard things about leadership they wont tell you. Once you hit SENIOR LEADERSHIP, you’ll only regret inaction. Intervening earlier rather than later will be a big difference maker in your success at an executive level. Podcast ep up now. #letsjuststartpodcast #lauraracky #christiancunningham #leadership #action @Laura Racky @Christian Cunningham
I went to thos talk once, the speaker was a top CEO, he said change management is easy, either the person accepts and runs with the change, or we change them. At the time I was wtf, but he is totally right.

because intuition (gut instinct) is neutral NOT emotional. Making emotional decisions is a trauma response which is not conducive to peak performance

Guys where are you all rushing to?! You will intervene quicker?! For what? For a bottom line? Or is this intervention in the interest of the human probably trying their best and failing because your systems are stuck? Your priorities are not aligned to them? Etc?

Well when you just push ppl in the jungle with no support how do you expect them to blossom.

I took over a poor performing & problematic team (no one gave me the heads up). I immediately put things into place as well as accountability & did not waver from it. 2 out of the 3 moved on & the 3rd stepped up his game. If it did not go that way I was definitely going down the PIP road.

You guys are lucky to have seen this. The amount of leaders that are incompetent are astronomical and they could not address this, let alone have any amount of self awareness to come to this conclusion.

I learned this very early in my career when I first became a team leader. You need to intervene quicker and sooner as it is more difficult to address further on down the track

I was lucky (in a way) that I was on the other side of this very early in my career. I thought I was performing, but months later, I was informed I wasn't!!! If they'd intervened sooner I could have adjusted my approach. Since then, I've learnt to have these conversations immediately - give people the tools.

I agree with him..some of my best employees have been “late bloomers” and just needed a little bit more support and coaching and I couldn’t imagine my team without them now :)

Setting expectations should be #1 thing u know as a new hire. But that is very unlikely in my experience most companies won’t

writing is on the wall its sometimes a 50/50 of having the optimism things will change with feedback and intervention but when trust is broken thats another story

It’s good both ways if early intervention happens. Gives people a chance to fix it.

Patricia Griffiths :
Its so much easier for the leadership to ignore the longer term team issues, those poor performers never addressed. They bring someone in new without dealing with the problems and that just creates a reset for those leaders to repeat that pattern after the probationer is gone because its easier it also shows poor leadership that the poor performers take advantage of and another six months given to those poor-performers, that will be harder to correctly intervene or train or coach.

Sam Grewal :
I was talking to one of my colleagues who is also a senior leader and one of the issues is a defeatist attitude or when there’s more reactivity and less pro-activity

Now as a sr. Leader my patience has gotten less on employees not performing to the expected level and not pivoting. You get they are so nice and positive…I agree and being a good human being doesn’t equal success unfortunately

If you had emotional intelligence as a leader… a 3, 6, 12 month probation should be an easy assessment… why are you waiting for 5, 9, 15 months… to make a decision? When it’s now awkward and potentially litigious. Personally, I think all management positions… whether internal or external should under go EI tests… they should also be tested on Corporate Expectations… and this would end the angst of poor performance. It’s a tough world… 🌍 Rather than wondering if your comms are PC - speak up and get rid of dead talent… and always be pipelining for the future. At all LEVELS 🧠

Leadership isn’t about comfort.
It’s about stepping in before it’s too late.
