Wouldn't it be nice if a time management tool could solve all our problems as humanitarian and development leaders? Unfortuntely, it doesn't work that way.

Will I Lose My Team's Respect by Not Having the Answers? 14:29

1 year ago14:29

14:29

What is a common fear of leaders in humanitarian and international development when it comes to coaching their teams? The fear of losing respect. Losing respect because their team sees them as needing to have all the answers. So if they start asking their teams what they think, then the team will question their authority. I understand the reasoning behind this concern, especially in certain cultures where leadership is more directive. But how true is it? And is it really true we need to provide our teams with answers all the time? In this episode I share how this way of thinking can limit your growth as a leader - and how to use a more balanced approach which will motivate your team and take pressure off of yourself to need to know it all.
