TerconPartner’s response: “The productivity and well-being of team members depends primarily on one person — the Leader.”

Leaders need to be “Community Builders.”

Definition of “community” – Everyone feels included, has a sense of purpose, and is aware of their role as part of a larger organization. Our leadership development training programs develop leaders who can grow into community builders.

Leading In The Post-Pandemic Business Environment

“Leadership is a relationship between people who aspire to lead and those who choose whether or not to follow.”

– James Kouzes & Barry Posner, The Leadership Challenge

Tercon’s Comment:

Great leaders are willing to hold difficult conversations rather than glossing over the truth, even though it might temporarily lower morale. Our leadership development training programs are custom tailored to your business.

The pandemic that upended the world of work left daunting business and leadership challenges in its wake. The rapid transition from office-based work to remote working accelerated the transition from hierarchy to a network of teams as the organizing principle for how work gets done. As a consequence, leaders and followers are renegotiating the “rules of engagement” in the workplace – wherever it may be.

Leaders help teams build a sense of community when they:

– Encourage members to share information and get to know each other

– Facilitate the development of a common vision and goals

– Empower teams to make decisions independently

– Provide positive recognition for team and individual accomplishments.

Micro-managing – The one thing leaders should avoid doing at all costs. It does not improve productivity and runs the risk of signaling mistrust.

Focus instead on results when communicating with team members:

What has been accomplished? What barriers have you encountered and/or overcome? What do you need from me?

Challenge # 2: How to maintain the trust of followers during times of disruption and uncertainty

TerconPartner’s response: Low trust is bad for business, bad for people and must be addressed directly.

“When trust is low in a company or relationship it places a hidden “tax” on every transaction, every communication, every interaction, every strategy, every decision and brings speed down and sending costs up.” — Stephen M.H. Covey

Challenge # 3: How to prevent conflict from eroding individual and team performance.

TerconPartner’s response: If you are a leader today, it is your job to see that potentially divisive conflicts are addressed early and resolved constructively.

The disruption caused by the pandemic has resulted in a significant increase in workplace conflict. A recent Myers-Briggs study of 5,000 workers across nine countries found that 85% of participants reported increased conflict at work.

Symptoms of Conflict in Teams

In the hybrid environment, symptoms of unresolved conflict frequently show up in team meetings

1.“Guarded” communication – people hold their cards close to the chest.

2. Some members dominate discussion, others remain silent.

3. The “real” issues are swept under the rug.

4. “Turf battles” can become intense.

5. Blame-placing and finger pointing may occur.

6. Factions may form and people take sides.

7. The ghosts of past unresolved conflicts linger under the surface.

Proactive conflict management must be a priority for team managers and leaders in the new work environment.

1. Talk about the challenges and opportunities ahead.

2. Focus on the present and things they have control over.

3. Demonstrate empathy and concern for team member well-being.

4. Invest in relationship building. Start with one member at a time.

5. Provide clear goals, accountabilities, and deadlines.

6. Expect occasional conflict and address it quickly.

If your team regularly experiences one or more of these symptoms, contact us for information about our Clear the Air Tool.

When this process is skillfully facilitated: 1.) The realissues get put on the table, and 2.) Longstanding relationship barriers that jeopardize business results are removed.
