Each week Kevin McCarthy and Likky Lavji facilitate authentic conversations with leaders just like you to help you discover what it takes from being a manager who is good at getting stuff done to being a great leader who inspires others to do their best.
They are everywhere. So how do you bring the best out in your team if you have a teflon person in the mix? Well it starts with your own self-awareness. Does this person have trust in you? Are you able to take the extra time to react when disappointed in a team member or their performance?
Once you are able to check yourself, you can begin to ask what is going on with this person. Often teflon people remain in an environment because they are needed. They bring a skillset that is valuable enough for the team and leaders to put up with whatever self-awareness they lack or insecurities they are compensating for. So ask yourself – what is the value this person brings to the team? And how are you going to coach your teflon-person to be the team-player you need they need to be.
We explore this and more in our Awareness Advantage podcast. Check out our episodes, and go from being a good manager--to a great leader!
