Start Inspiring Stop Driving

At a time when organisations are expected to deliver more with less, the ability to extract latent potential, and grow intelligence and capability is a major competitive advantage. Several indicators suggest we have not really tapped into the human potential lying dormant in our organisations. How many leaders in your organisation have inspired teams? By growing leaders, who can inspire teams to perform at their best, teams will move from dependent and needing to be driven to perform, to inspire to lead themselves to outperform and grow. Imagine if more people felt inspired to contribute more of their talents: what could you achieve as a team or organisation? An inspired team pulls together to achieve the results it needs to deal with difficult issues, maintain challenging conflict and be tough with each other to hold each other accountable. Inspired teams harbour both warmth and toughness, and contribute to strategic issues, with the perspective it gains from the knowledge and experience in its work. It is time to start inspiring; it is time for leaders to unlock the dormant potential in teams and organisations.
