"Two Ears, One Mouth"

I’m not saying these are not right. The suggestion I am offering is that we must listen to all relevant stakeholders first before we change anything. We are blessed to have two ears and one mouth so we can listen well to feedback, insights and recommendations first.

Afterwards, you can conduct a strategic workshop with your key leaders, create imperatives, agree on action plans and execution seamlessly.

This is one of my High Performing Teams. Each of these leaders are dedicated in living the mission of the organization for the customers, fellow associates and for the community. Work Stream leaders discuss feedback and exchange insights using SWOT and Stop-Start-Continue models focusing on Associates, Customers, World Class Operations, Sustainable Economics, and Innovation.

Leaders must have the ability to listen well before implementing major activities affecting the Team especially when you’re taking over a new Team.

Somehow, I see some leaders are wired to do any of the following: get things going immediately guns blazing, fire-up all cylinders swiftly, change all that was done by past leaders, implement her/his way or the hi-way, comply with 100% of what her/his boss says, or immediately implement what s/he has done in her/his previous company.
