Are you ready for your own “Leadership Gap Analysis”?

As you look first in your mirror, and then at the reality of your leadership roles today, how well are you assessing your ability and commitment to the new rules of guiding remote and hybrid team players and teams? How do you grade yourself? Not judgement but a fair, accurate and authentic self-assessment.

The fulcrum has tipped and it’s not going back to those good old days of 2018.

More leaders than ever, certainly in the past decade, are failing.

An alarming number of companies deal with newly minted leaders failing at the jobs for which they have been groomed and these mismatches are common across industries, geographies and roles in almost all organizations. As the number of challenges increases, the more likely it becomes that leaders will fall short of their objectives.

Frequent leadership changes, a culture of low support or collaboration, high uncertainty and a high conflict work culture have the strongest negative impact on a leader’s performance. Would you be willing to think about 1) workforce changes and 2) current recruitment processes as two of the newest and most challenging changes leaders face across the business ecosystem? And what are you doing to face them and adapt?

Something you can do for you, to ease both the pain and anxiety of falling over the cliff of failure in 2022 is to engage in your own “ leadership gap analysis “.

Here’s where you can get one that is adaptable to where you are and where you need to go. Give it a shot!

Summing up what’s important to your leadership effectiveness. A first look:

Today’s effective leaders are attuned to their guiding values and can often intuit the best course of action, seeing the big picture in a complex situation. Emotionally self-aware leaders can be candid and authentic, able to speak openly about their emotions or with conviction about their guiding vision.

Are you on this path?
